BOSTON (AP) — Masahiro
Tanaka pitched a three-
hitter to outduel Chris Sale
and earn his first shutout
since 2014, and New York
beat Boston for its fifth
straight victory over the ri-
val Red Sox.
Tanaka (3-1) struck out
three and threw only 97
pitches for his fifth career
complete game and his
10th win in 11 decisions
dating to last season. Aar-
on Hicks had two hits and
scored twice, and Matt
Holliday had two hits and
two RBIs.
Sale (1-2) allowed three
runs — two earned — and
eight hits in eight innings,
striking out 10 and walk-
ing none. He joined Pedro
Martinez, Roger Clemens
and Jon Lester as Red Sox
pitchers with 10 or more
strikeouts in four straight
starts.
