#Yankees had pitched 26 scoreless playoff innings vs. Red Sox before that Willson Contreras homer, dating back to Trevor Story's HR off Carlos Rodon in the sixth inning of ALWCS Game 2 last year.

Cam Schlittler in 6 career starts against the Red Sox, including playoffs: 0.47 ERA 11.41 K/9 Since ERA became official in both leagues in 1913, no other MLB pitcher has had a sub-0.50 ERA & 11.00+ K/9 over his first 6 career starts against any opponent (reg & post).
