One of the Yankees TV guys called him "J.D. Drew" last night, but we knew better.
J.D. Martinez hit a solo home run in the top of the eighth inning last night to help the Red Sox beat the Yankees 5-4 at Yankee Stadium.
The win allowed Boston to salvage one of the three games in the series and put them back into a tie with New York for first place in the American League East.
Joe Kelly was the winner in relief despite allowing four runs - including three inherited runners - in the bottom of the seventh inning.
Eduardo Rodriguez went five innings and held the Yankees to just one hit. He walked three and struck out eight, including five in a row at one point.
Craig Kimbrel delivered a 1-2-3 ninth inning for his tenth save of the year.
Hanley Ramirez (pictured) drove in three runs, including a solo home run in the fifth. Mookie Betts led the team with three hits.
