<p>The<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/boston-red-sox">Boston Red Sox</a></strong> have been officially eliminated from playoff contention. This marks the fifth time in the last six years that the team has missed the postseason. The last time they reached the postseason was in 2021, advancing to the American League Championship Series, where they fell to the <strong>Houston Astros</strong>, manager <strong>Alex Cora</strong>‘s former team.</p>



<p>This year, the Red Sox were eliminated by their AL East rivals, the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/toronto-blue-jays">Toronto Blue Jays</a></strong>, who defeated them 6-1 on Wednesday night. With an <strong>80-79 record</strong> and three games remaining in the regular season, Boston is at risk of finishing its third straight losing season.</p>



<p>To qualify for the postseason, the Red Sox needed to win their final four games of the regular season and get help to earn the final AL wild-card spot. They also had to keep winning without third baseman<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/rafael-devers"> <strong>Rafael Devers</strong></a>, who suffered a shoulder injury at the end of the season last Saturday. In the end, the Blue Jays made Boston’s elimination official, ending their hopes of postseason baseball.</p>



<p>After the defeat that eliminated them from the playoffs, Cora spoke with the media.<strong> “<em>Our goal was to make it to the playoffs. It didn’t happen, but it’s a good learning experience for those kids over there. Obviously, it’s going to be a different group next year, but for them to think that they were almost there…</em></strong><em> I mean, at one point it felt like we were a playoff-caliber team, and then we missed the opportunity. Let’s put it that way. You look around, you look at the teams that are fighting, we had it right there and we blew it,”</em> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/alex-cora">Alex Cora</a> said of the Red Sox’s 2024 season, via <em>MLB.com’s Ian Browne</em> on X.</p>

<h2>Red Sox 2024: A season full of highs and lows</h2>



<p>The Red Sox certainly looked like a playoff-caliber team early in the season, but they fell apart in the second half, going 27-36 since the All-Star break—the sixth-worst record in baseball during that span.</p>



<h2>What’s next for the Red Sox? </h2>



<p>Despite the disappointing result, the 2024 season has had some positives for the Red Sox, who are entering an important offseason for the club’s future. Boston has some promising pieces to build on. In addition to Devers, <strong>Jarren Duran</strong> has impressed with his historic season, becoming the first player since<strong> Stan Musial</strong> in 1946 to hit 47 doubles and 14 triples in a single season.</p>

<p><strong>New York Yankees</strong> manager <strong>Aaron Boone</strong> wasn’t silent about the incident in which <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/boston-red-sox">Boston Red Sox</a></strong> manager <strong>Alex Cora</strong> referred to the intentional pitch to <strong>Aaron Judge</strong>. </p>



<p><strong>MLB</strong> has opened an investigation into recent comments by Cora, who suggested that pitcher Brayan Bello may have intentionally pitched near (or behind) New York Yankees star <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/aaron-judge">Aaron Judge</a> during their weekend matchup. However, after the investigation, MLB decided not to sanction Cora or the Red Sox for the incident that occurred on September 14.</p>



<p>When asked about Cora’s lack of punishment, Yankees manager <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/aaron-boone">Aaron Boone</a> said he was over the incident and focused on the future. However, he took the opportunity to throw a subtle hint at his team’s eternal rivals.</p>



<p><strong><em>“I feel like we’re past this weekend. Chances are, we’re not going to play them anymore this year. We’ve got too many important things going on in front of us to really get caught up in that,”</em></strong> Boone said via Bryan Hoch of <em>MLB.com.</em></p>

<h2>Context of the Yankees-Red Sox incident</h2>



<p>During the game that sparked controversy, <strong>Gerrit Cole</strong> hit <strong>Rafael Devers </strong>with a pitch in the first inning before intentionally walking the slugger in his next at-bat. Cora interpreted this as a sign that Cole hit Devers on purpose to avoid pitching to him. </p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/mlb/red-soxs-alex-cora-sends-strong-message-on-mlbs-potential-penalty-in-yankees-aaron-judge-case"></div>


<p>In the sixth inning of the same game, Bello threw a pitch that went past Judge. MLB investigated Cora’s comments after the game, which suggested Bello’s actions were intentional, though no wrongdoing was ultimately found.</p>



<h2>The Yankees’ and Red Sox’s Road to the postseason</h2>



<p>Boston is currently out of the wild-card race, four games behind the <strong>Minnesota Twins</strong> for the final playoff spot in the American League. On the other hand, the Yankees hold a three-game lead atop the <strong>AL East</strong>. Boone made it clear that New York is focused solely on the World Series race, rather than a matchup with a team that likely won’t see action in October.</p>

<p><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/boston-red-sox">Boston Red Sox</a> </strong>manager <strong>Alex Cora</strong> will not face a suspension from <strong>MLB</strong> following his comments suggesting <strong>Brayan Bello</strong>‘s pitch to <strong>New York Yankees</strong> star <strong>Aaron Judge</strong> was intentional.</p>



<p>On Saturday, in the sixth inning of the Red Sox’s 7-1 victory, Bello threw a fastball at Judge’s legs. This sparked controversy, as Yankees pitcher <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/gerrit-cole">Gerrit Cole</a></strong> had previously hit Boston’s hitter <strong>Rafael Devers</strong> accidentally.</p>



<p><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/alex-cora">Alex Cora</a> told reporters he believed Cole’s pitch to Devers was intentional. After an intentional walk to Devers in his next at-bat, Cora said, <em><strong>“He doesn’t want to face him. That’s the bottom line. He told us with the intentional walk that after the first at-bat, he hit him.”</strong></em></p>



<p>A reporter later asked Cora if he considered the matter “closed.” <em><strong>“Yeah,” </strong></em>Cora answered, according to <em>MLB.com’s Ian Browne</em>. <em><strong>“It was closed yesterday, like, around the sixth inning, so you know, we had our chance. It didn’t happen. We have to move on.”</strong></em></p>

<h2>What happened with MLB’s investigation of Cora?</h2>



<p>Cora’s comments about an alleged <em><strong>“settling of scores”</strong></em> led to an MLB investigation. According to <strong>Chris Cotillo</strong> of <em>MassLive.com</em>, the league investigated the matter for two days and spoke with Cora. Following the investigation, a source informed Cotillo that <em><strong>“no announcement of a suspension is forthcoming.”</strong></em></p>

<h2>Aaron Judge responds to Cora</h2>



<p>The Yankees outfielder responded to Cora’s comments, saying he saw the pitch as a way to <em>“protect his players.”</em> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/aaron-judge">Aaron Judge</a> stated: <em><strong>“Things like that happen… something’s got to happen, and that’s the way this game kind of gets policed and has been policed for 100 years,”</strong> </em>Judge told reporters, according to Julian McWilliams of <em>The Boston Globe.</em> <em>“So the biggest thing is, don’t miss when you do it.”</em></p>

Red Sox’s Alex Cora sends strong message on MLB's potential penalty in Yankees' Aaron Judge case - Bolavip US

<p><strong>Major League Baseball</strong> is investigating comments made by <strong>Boston Red Sox</strong> manager <strong>Alex Cora</strong> regarding a possible attempt by the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-yankees">New York Yankees</a></strong> to intentionally hit <strong>Rafael Devers</strong>, to which the Red Sox allegedly responded by targeting <strong>Aaron Judge</strong>. </p>



<p>Cora made a strong admission by suggesting that the Yankees had intentionally hit <strong> Devers</strong>, and that the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/boston-red-sox">Red Sox</a> had responded in kind. <strong>MLB</strong>‘s investigation is focused on determining whether Cora’s comments are substantiated and whether the teams involved acted inappropriately. The league is reviewing the situation and has not yet made a decision, according to the <em>New York Post.</em></p>



<p><strong><em>“I felt like in the first at-bat, he hit him on purpose,” </em></strong>said Cora <em>(via NESN)</em>. <strong><em>“He doesn’t want to face him, that’s the bottom line. He told us with the intentional walk that in the first at-bat, he hit him. We’ll leave it at that. After that, he had the bases loaded and had to face him.”</em></strong></p>



<p>As <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/alex-cora">Alex Cora</a> pointed out, with the bases loaded, Cole had no choice but to face Devers again. The Dominican took advantage of the opportunity and hit a two-run RBI single. <strong><em>“We took exception to (the HBP) because it was loud and clear that he didn’t want to face him,”</em></strong> Cora said. <em><strong>“It was intentional, I’m not going to back off. It was intentional.”</strong></em></p>

<h3>What happened in the game between the Yankees and Red Sox?</h3>



<p>The incident occurred during a game between the Yankees and Red Sox. In the fourth inning, Yankees pitcher <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/gerrit-cole">Gerrit Cole</a></strong> intentionally decided to walk Rafael Devers. However, Cora claimed that Cole had hit Devers on purpose in a previous inning and that the intentional walk was a sign of it.</p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/mlb/gerrit-cole-reveals-why-he-intentionally-walked-rafael-devers-in-yankees-vs-red-sox-showdown"></div>

<p>Alex Cora stated after the game: <em><strong>“There’s not much to say in that clubhouse… We know where we’re at. They have a good team.

<p>Tonight Chris Sale takes the mound for the Red Sox, while the Astros counter with lefty Framber Valdez. Houston has had a good percentage of hits against left handers all season. <strong>Trying to not give up many runs will be key for both sides to stay in the fight in Game 5 at Fenway.</strong> </p>

<p>Before the start of the 2020 NFL season and during the protests over the murder of George Floyd, the formerHouston Texans coach stated that <strong>he would kneel with his players during the anthem</strong>, a situation that goes against the thoughts of Donald Trump: “<em>Yes, I will kneel (…) I am totally in favor. Players have the right to protest, to be heard, and to be who they are. They do not kneel because they are against our flag. They kneel because they have not been treated the same in this country for more than 400 years,</em> “he said.</p>

<p>Alex Cora, a native of Puerto Rico, after the Boston Red Sox won the 2018World Series <strong>declined to go with his team to the White House as all championship teams do.</strong>The reason? Cora felt the Trump administration handled the tragedy of Hurricane Maria, where more than 3,000 people died, poorly, and did not feel right attending. “<em>That is our reality. It is quite difficult to go to celebrate at times when we are like this. I prefer not to go and be congruent with everything, </em>“he said.</p>

<p>Perhaps no other high profile sports figure has been more vocal against the President than the San Antonio Spurs boss. <strong>Gregg Popovich has called Trump <em>“A soulless coward”, a “deranged idiot”</em></strong>, and has called on all citizens of the United States to not vote for Trump saying, “<em>For me, it is quite simple: a vote for Donald Trump is a vote against the very ideals on which our democracy was founded</em>.”</p>
