G65: Red Sox at Phillies, 7 PM

Brian Johnson / Jeremy Hellickson

The home-and-home, four-game series with the Phillies moves to Philadelphia after the Red Sox won the two games in Boston in extra innings.

The Red Sox had not won two consecutive games lasting 11+ innings since 1975. On April 11 and 12, 1975, in the third and fourth games of the season, the Red Sox beat the Orioles 6-5 in 12 innings and 3-2 in 13 innings in Baltimore. In the first game, Baltimore's Doyle Alexander relieved starter Mike Cuellar in the sixth inning and pitched the final 6.
