The Red Sox season is over thanks to the New York Yankees and a kid from Walpole.
Why it matters: Red Sox Nation's dreams of another World Series run will have to wait until next year.
What's happening: New York rookie pitcher Cam Schlittler delivered a dominant eight innings last night in the Bronx, striking out 12 batters in a 4-0 Game 3 victory for the Yankees.
By the numbers: Schlittler's 12 strikeouts set a Yankees rookie postseason record.
Between the lines: The loss abruptly ended an 89-73 season for the Sox that had snapped a three-year postseason drought.
What's next: New York advances to Toronto tomorrow.
