Britton used his bowling ball sinker to sweep through the Sox in order in the 9th to lock down the save.All-in-all, the bullpen deserves almost as much credit as Aaron Judge for the series sweep.Every time the Red Sox put runs on the board, the Yankees responded to either tie the game or take the lead.
