EDGE Analysis

The right-hander blanked Boston through five innings before serving up a three-run shot to Rafael Devers in the sixth, but the Yankees already had a comfortable lead. The quality start was Cole's first in four outings and his 18th of the year, and he'll take a 3.08 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 237:41 K:BB through 175.1 innings into what's likely to be his final start of the regular season next week in a series against Toronto which could determine a wild-card spot.
