The Yankees were in need of a hit — particularly with a runner on base — and Austin Wells delivered. The catcher, whose playing time has taken a dip this season because of Ben Rice’s rise, snuck a single down the right field line for the go-ahead RBI in the eighth.

Brayan Bello lasted just 2 ¹/₃ innings in which he was hit hard — two runs on four hits and a walk — before Boston manager Alex Cora essentially opted for a bullpen game.

Jazz Chisholm Jr. saved a run with his glove, keeping a single from reaching the outfield grass in the seventh, then scored the go-ahead run by charging around the bases and scoring from first on Wells’ single.

Series won by teams that have lost Game 1 of the wild-card round since it came into existence in 2022. Game 1 winners entered this October 12-for-12.
