The Boston Red Sox picked up their 42nd win of 2019 at home on Friday night, a place that hasn’t been all that friendly to them record wise. The win put Boston at 18-17 at Fenway Park and was arguably their most impressive win this season.
Boston trailed 5-1 at one point, after starter Chris Sale surrendered 4 runs (3 ER) on 7 hits in five innings of work. The bullpen came in once again and virtually shut the door, as manager Alex Cora brought in five arms in relief who all combined to give up just one earned run.
