On a 91-degree night with the pennant race, the New York Yankees took advantage of more luck against their biggest rival.
The home race and the Yankees again beat David Price, connecting five times in the first four innings on Sunday on the way to an 11-1 rout of the Boston Red Sox.
"It's awesome," Hicks said. "I lost consciousness after the third kind of did not know what to do.But I mean, it's exciting."
Luis Severino became the first winner of 13 games in the major leagues , beating 6 2/3 innings of bullets with two hits after the Bronx Bombers quickly built him a big cushion. The Yankees (54-27) took two of three on Boston to regain the best baseball record and first place in the Eastern League.

Higashioka dominated in the second bridge in Price's left field for his first hit in the major league after a start of 22 for his career. Higashioka, wearing the number 66 in pinstripes, received the silent treatment when he returned to the bench before his happy teammates finally engulfed him. "The feeling is indescribable," said Higashioka to his locker, the championship belt of the team in his chair. "I laughed … I did not expect that, but I mean, obviously it was amazing … it was just a terrific feeling."
Price was shaken for eight deserved points – corresponding to a career high – and nine hits in three innings and one-third, his last flop against the Yankees. He had never given up more than three circuits during a match.
Severino (13-2) lowered his ERA to 1.98 and improved to 8-0 at home this season. He cheered the crowd of 46,795 and tipped his hat, on track to become the first Yankees thrower to launch the All-Star Game since Roger Clemens in 2001.

He has faced New York twice this year, awarding 12 earned runs in 4 innings and one-third, and 0-5 with a 10.44 ERA in his last five starts at Yankee Stadium. . "Honestly, I felt good, they put a lot of good shots on what I felt were good shots," said Price, who has a 7-1 record with a 2.72 ERA in nine starts. He was diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome that made him miss a turn in New York in May. "I've faced the Yankees several times. It's time for me to go back to this drawing board.
