Red Sox News

The Red Sox are riding a wave of optimism after last night's 2-0 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays, snapping their recent struggles with a solid performance that featured a strong outing from the bullpen. The team welcomed back Justin Slaten, who rejoined the relief corps after recovering from a right oblique strain, bolstering a unit that has been under pressure this season.
