BONUS: ALWC Game 1 Reaction (9/29/25)

Game 1 of the Wild Card series had everything October baseball promises—tension, drama, and heartbreak in the Bronx. In front of 47,000-plus fans at Yankee Stadium, Max Fried delivered a gem and Anthony Volpe provided an early spark with a solo shot. But the night unraveled in the seventh inning when the Yankees’ bullpen faltered, giving the Red Sox the opening they needed.

Garrett Crochet turned in a historic performance for Boston, striking out 11 Yankees over 7.2 innings, while former Yankee Aroldis Chapman slammed the door in the ninth. Despite loading the bases with no outs in their final at-bat, the Yankees couldn’t cash in. Chris breaks down the pivotal moments, from Luke Weaver’s missed chance to Yoshida’s clutch pinch-hit and Bregman’s insurance RBI. With Carlos Rodón set to start Game 2, the Yankees are now fighting for survival in this best-of-three series.
