Tim Britton sums it up nicely:
There were no late-inning grand slams, no ninth-inning walkoffs and hardly any drama at all.
There was no need on Saturday. Boston's 5-1 victory over the Yankees was ho-hum in every way, an unremarkable win on a season defined by how remarkable it has become.
It was a nice, relaxing game to watch.1

Now that is something you do not say about a Sox v. Yankees game very often. ↩
