Though his first start against New York was “ugly,” in his words, Crochet dominated the Yankees when they visited Boston in mid-June; he nearly pitched a complete-game shutout, striking out Aaron Judge three times before Judge crushed a ninth-inning solo homer.

Garrett Crochet is in the midst of a dominant first season with Boston, pitching to a 2.43 ERA and 196 strikeouts in 159.1 innings — all of which rank third or better in the American League.

NEW YORK – Saturday is Garrett Crochet Day at Yankee Stadium. The Red Sox ace will make his third start against the Yankees this season (and of his career) in the 1:05 p.m. ET contest.
