David Price pitched seven stellar innings with seven strikeouts, Xander Bogaerts hit a three-run homer and drove in every run, and the Red Sox beat the Baltimore Orioles 4-0 on Sunday.
The teams wrap up their four-game series with Boston’s traditional Patriots’ Day morning game Monday, with first pitch set for 11:05 a.m. and Baltimore’s Dan Straily (0-1, 19.29 ERA) slated to face RHP Hector Velázquez (0-0, 2.79). Last season’s holiday game was rained out.
Boston’s big starting foursome of Price, Chris Sale, Rick Porcello and Nathan Eovaldi entered Sunday 0-7 with an 8.43 ERA in 11 starts.
