Was Red Sox manager Chad Tracy right to remove Sonny Gray from Game 2 against the Yankees?

During the American League Wild Card Series matchup against the New York Yankees on September 30, 2026, Boston Red Sox manager Chad Tracy lifted starting pitcher Sonny Gray in the fifth frame after four and two-thirds innings and seventy pitches. Gray voiced frustration over the early hook, pointing to his strong statistics when facing batters for a third time during the season.

Following Gray's departure, reliever Erik Miller entered the contest and surrendered a run. The Boston bullpen ultimately struggled as the Yankees pulled away, concluding the Red Sox campaign.
