New Red Sox outfielder Tommy Pham has been a revelation since he joined the Red Sox ahead of the Aug. 2 trade deadline.
Pham’s already hit three homers in his first 10 games with the Red Sox. On Friday, he added another big hit. He hit a sharp liner down the third base line against Lou Trivino in the 10th inning to score the winning run from third to give the Red Sox a 3-2 win over the Yankees.
Considering the Red Sox got Pham from the Reds for just a player to be named later, it’s easy to wonder if they could’ve had him earlier, especially as their outfield hitting has struggled for much of the season – a cause for their 56-68 record following Friday’s win.
