BOSTON – One of the three rookie lefties in the surging rotation for the Boston Red Sox, Jake Bennett did what has become the expected of late. Bennett mowed down the opposition with precision, and on a big stage, too, outpitching Gerritt Cole as the Red Sox downed the Yankees, 4-1, for their third straight win in a four-game rivalry series that wraps up on Sunday night. Sonny Gray surely knows what his job is. That would be to stretch what is already the rotation’s longest string of quality starts in 38 years to 11 games. Bennett made it a perfect 10 for the five-man group, holding the Yankees to three hits and one run over a career-high 6 1/3 innings. “He was awesome. Another one added on to the quality start list,” said Red Sox interim manager Chad Tracy. ”In the third inning, he locked in and was back in the zone.” The zone is exactly what the entire rotation is in. Over the past 10 games, the starting five of Gray, Ranger Suarez, Payton Tolle, Connelly Early and Bennett have a 1.69 ERA. “When you really think about that, you know how difficult that is to do, to get 10 straight \[starts\
