Garrett Crochet held New York scoreless over a career-high 8 1/3 innings, but Aaron Judge's solo home run in the ninth ruined his shutout and his chance at the win.

Four times, Aaron Judge came the bat against Garrett Crochet. The first three times, Crochet recorded a strikeout, extending Judge’s streak of futility to six straight plate appearances ending in a punch out against the Red Sox ace lefty, dating back to last Saturday in the Bronx.

BOSTON — Seven straight times, Aaron Judge faced Garrett Crochet prior to his ninth-inning at-bat against the Boston lefty, and Judge struck out. It was the second time in his career one pitcher has gotten Judge that many at-bats in a row, with Zach Eflin doing it before, according to Elias.
