VIDEO: Yankees Take Lead Over Red Sox in 7th Inning Thanks to Gary Sanchez and Aaron Hicks
By Thomas Carannante
The folks in London are getting their money's worth. After a 30-run affair on Saturday, the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox are now in a tight battle. With the Sox leading 4-2 heading into the seventh, their bullpen couldn't maintain the lead as the Yankees bats got the best of them. Aaron Hicks brought in a run with a frozen rope down the line after DJ LeMahieu's leadoff double.

And then Gary Sanchez came through with a two-run single to continue the rough inning for Marcus Walden.

Walden made a mistake with that slider that didn't move after putting Sanchez in a 1-2 hole.
Then Matt Barnes came into the game and struck out the next batter. But two straight singles with the latter coming from Gio Urshela put the Yankees up three.

But we're not done yet! Here's LeMahieu ripping a two-run double as the Yankees batted around the order.
