5 takeaways as Kyle Schwarber’s first hits help Red Sox sweep Orioles

The Red Sox won their fourth game in five attempts on Sunday, clinching a sweep against the Orioles with a 6-2 victory.

Here’s what happened.

The Big Picture

The Orioles scored a run in the first inning, but the Red Sox weren’t far behind – – with two runners on in the bottom of the frame, J.D. Martinez drove a pitch off the National Car Rental sign in left field to give the Red Sox a 3-1 lead they would never relinquish.

The Red Sox’s offense, however, added some insurance in the sixth.
