Red Sox end Germán's no-hit bid in 8th, storm past Yankees. MORE:
The old ballpark was almost silent all afternoon until Verdugo opened the eighth with a long double for Boston’s first hit. By the time Kiké Hernández slid home headfirst on Xander Bogaerts’ sacrifice fly with the go-ahead run to cap the rally, fans were in a frenzy.
Boston trailed 4-0 when Verdugo doubled to deep right, and Germán was lifted after the hit by manager Aaron Boone. Germán was trying for the first no-hitter by an opponent at Fenway Park since Detroit's Jim Bunning in 1958, when he retired fellow future Hall of Famer Ted Williams on a fly for the final out.Rougned Odor had a solo homer and RBI single. He popped up with a runner on second to end it.
There were two near-misses on Saturday night: Patrick Sandoval of the Angels got his bid broken up with one out in the ninth at Minnesota, and Framber Valdez and the Houston bullpen took a try into the eighth.
