Red Sox News

The Boston Red Sox are riding a wave of momentum after their convincing 3-1 victory over the Baltimore Orioles, solidifying a recent 5-2 stretch that has helped them keep pace in the playoff race. As they gear up to face the Los Angeles Angels at Fenway, there's exciting buzz around their top prospect, Hayden Mullins, who has become a beacon of hope in the wake of trade concerns about Adley Rutschman. With an impressive 3 earned runs in his last 26⅓ innings, Mullins is making a case to be a top player in the system. Meanwhile, fans might want to remember the postseason prowess of Ranger Suarez as they contemplate their playoff rotation. The Sox are finally looking like a team that can sweep away the competition, and the Angels might just be next on their list.

Worcester, Game 1: L, 8-7 (BOX SCORE) Gage Ziehl put Buffalo (Blue Jays AAA) on the board with a home run, but that was the only run he allowed in his five innings. The bullpen (Angel Bastardo and Tyler Samaniego) were not as lucky, as they got taken for a seven-run ride in the seventh. […]
