Red Sox 7, Marlins 5

 

Back-to-back wins for Boston, and the team's one win away from a home sweep of Miami. Trevor Story homered, his 19th of the season, and Bregman, Duran, and Yoshida all had RBIs. 

Brayan Bello shut the Marlins out over 4.2 innings before giving up homers late in the 5th and in the 7th. Reliever Isaiah Campbell gave up three more runs on three consecutive at-bats in the top of the 9th before Aroldis Chapman came on and got the final out to end the game.

It's Crochet Day! The Red Sox go for the sweep this afternoon with pitcher Garrett Crochet (13-5, 2.48) taking the mound. Miami pitcher Janson Junk (6-2, 4.06) has the thankless task of opposing Crochet and avoiding the sweep, but we feel this isn't going to end well for Junk.
