The Boston Red Sox did not start their season well. After five games, we were talking about a 1-4 file.
Yesterday, Garrett Crochet, who signed a contract extension in the last days, took matters into his own hands and allowed the club to go get a second gain this season.
And today the attack has risen.
In a gain of 8-4, Rafael Devers placed the ball in a safe place, but it was above all Alex Bregman who made the difference. He notably struck his first circuit under his new colors.
Three strokes, two points scored, three points produced: the old astros was excellent. And in an 8-4 victory against a division rival, it made the difference.
Triston Casas also struck the long ball and Kristian Campbell showed why he deserved to be paid.
Obviously, it is still early to chat in ranking, but not be late in a tough division can be a good thing for a club like the Red Sox.
By winning two successful games against the Orioles, Alex Cora's formation ensures that it is not alone in the last rank in the East of the American League for the next hours.
The Yankees have not yet played and if they lose this evening against Arizona, there would be only a half match between the two large rivals. Otherwise, in the event of a victory, it will be a match and a half difference.
Right now, the Blue Jays are at the top of the division.
