Red Sox playoff odds: Walk-off loss to Yankees drops Boston to 5% chance

NEW YORK — The Red Sox played a winnable game in Thursday’s series opener at Yankee Stadium. But a four-hit night from an offense that went 0-for-11 with runners in scoring position wasn’t enough and Boston fell, 2-1, in 10 innings.

Boston failed to gain any ground in the American League wild card race. The Twins had the night off but the Tigers (4-2 loss to Colorado) and Mariners (5-4 loss to Texas) did play. The Red Sox are back to one game above .500 at 74-73 and enter Friday with a 4½ game gap to close with 15 games to go. Is there still time?

“You’ve got to stay positive,” said third baseman Rafael Devers (through translator Carlos Villoria Benítez. “If you come tomorrow and win and then win the next two games, then you’re right back there again in the fight. You have to just keep playing, stay positive and anything can happen.”

FanGraphs lists Boston’s postseason odds at just 5%. The Sox will play three more times in the Bronx before an off day Monday, then a three-game series against the Rays at Tropicana Field. On Friday, the Twins will begin a home series with the Reds, the Tigers will begin a set against the Orioles in Baltimore and the Mariners will keep playing Texas.

WILD CARD STANDINGS:

1. Baltimore Orioles — 83-64 (.565) +4.5 games

2. Kansas City Royals — 80-67 (.544) +1.5 games

3. Minnesota Twins — 78-68 (.534)

Others in the race:

4. Detroit Tigers — 75-72 (.510) — 3.5 games back

T-5. Boston Red Sox — 74-73 (.503) — 4.5 games back

T-5. Seattle Mariners — 74-73 (.503) — 4.5 games back

Red Sox at Reds preview: Sonny Gray makes his first start for Boston – The Boston Globe

Gray, acquired in a November trade from the St. Louis Cardinals, was one of Boston’s key rotation additions, along with Ranger Suarez, in the offseason. He was 14-8 with a 4.28 ERA in 2025.

“He’s very specific about his work. Every day has a purpose,” Red Sox manager Alex Cora said of Gray. “Two hundred strikeouts, that’s something that we were looking for. The competitor. Every five days, this guy is going to give you everything.”

In his five career appearances against the Reds, Gray is 1-3 with a 4.18 ERA.

“It’s pretty much one of the only things that is continuing to push me, is to get to a World Series, to win a World Series, to pitch in big games,” said Gray. “I love the moment, and I am chasing that moment.”

Here’s the preview:

RED SOX (1-0): TBA

Pitching: RHP Sonny Gray

REDS (0-1): TBA

Pitching: RHP Brady Singer

Time: 4:10 p.m.

TV, radio: NESN, WEEI-FM 93.7

Red Sox vs. Singer: Wilyer Abreu 2-5, Roman Anthony 1-2, Willson Contreras 2-7, Jarren Duran 3-10, Caleb Durbin 0-1, Isiah Kiner-Falefa 6-16, Marcelo Mayer 0-1, Andruw Monasterio 1-4, Carlos Narváez 1-1, Ceddanne Rafaela 1-5, Trevor Story 0-4, Connor Wong 2-8, Masataka Yoshida 2-7

Reds vs. Gray: Will Benson 0-5, Elly De La Cruz 5-11, TJ Friedl 1-8, Ke’Bryan Hayes 4-17, Nathaniel Lowe 2-10, Noelvi Marte 0-5, Matt McLain 2-2, Spencer Steer 4-9, Tyler Stephenson 0-8, Eugenio Suárez 7-13, Jose Trevino 0-2

Stat of the day: Sal Stewart become the first Cincinnati rookie since 1958 to record three hits on Opening Day.

Notes: Cincinnati sends righthander Brady Singer (14-12, 4.03 in 2025) to the mound … With Hunter Greene and Nick Lodolo already on the injured list to start the season, Singer is considered one of Cincinnati’s most durable pitchers, leading the Reds with 32 starts last season … Singer has made five career starts against Boston, posting a 2-2 record with a 4.88 ERA over 24 innings … His last appearance against the Red Sox, on July 1 in Boston, ended after just three innings when he allowed two earned runs on three hits.
