5 takeaways as Red Sox outlast Marlins, continue torrid stretch at home
Brayan Bello was in command the entire way against the Miami Marlins on Saturday.Forgive the Red Sox for finishing their recent road trip with a 2-4 record.
They just wanted to remind the Fenway faithful how much of a difference they truly make.
After outlasting the Miami Marlins, 7-5, on Saturday, Boston has now won 16 of its last 18 home games. The Red Sox (68-56) are 41-22 at home on the season, compared to 27-34 on the road.
Long term, they’ll likely have to become more consistent on the road to make a deep playoff run. For now, humming at home should be enough to vault them where they want to go.
