Be nice if we could win three in a row for a change and try and finish the season on a little roll.

The Red Sox and Orioles are in a battle for last place.

Finishing last would give us a four for four----four WS Titles this century and four last place finished since 2012.  Maybe this is the way Henry planned it this season.  I do like what Tanner and Pivetta have done the last couple of games.  Perhaps we may even be able to put together a decent starting rotation from the dismal one we've had this season.  I would also like the team go out and sign Trevor Bauer this off season.

Noisy bats for Sox in the third. Three runs on a single, double, triple, double and in between a runner on third (Plawicki after his triple) thrown out at home on a fielders choice play.  5-0 and still batting.

With the bases juiced, Devers mashes another double to plate three more in a 6 run third. Ten batters up.  Now 8-0. As Francona would say ... keep the line moving.

Solid win.  Plawecki has been another nice upside surprise.  Eovaldi is great when he's healthy.  I'd consider hiring a special trainer for him to keep him off the IL, just like I'd get a sports psychologist to deal with Martinez and for that matter E-Rod. 

Chavis seems to have received the message that his days in MLB could be numbered.  Maybe he'll settle down now.
