Let's make it a perfect homestand so far. Your Boston Red Sox made it 3 wins in a row versus archrival Tampa Bay with a 6-4 win today.
The Sox were cruising 4-0 behind Felix Doubront. However, Tampa Bay made a nice comeback in the middle innings to tie the game 4-4. David Ortiz hit a very important RBI double to give the Sox the lead once again. Mike Aviles added a solo shot which padded the lead to 6-4. Vicente Padilla, Franklin Morales & Alfredo Aceves shutdown the Rays' bats over the final 3 frames to close out the win.
I give the Sox credit for finding ways to win without Ells, Crawford & Bailey. So far it's been a lot of offense & key relief pitching to backup the starters. One more win on Patriots Day will give the Sox a sweep of the Rays.
