COMMENTARY
The quote that stood out after the Red Sox had their 48 hours of bliss against the Yankees, the same juggernaut they visit this weekend in an entirely different state, was Alex Cora’s declaration that “we feel like we can play with anybody.”
Four games in July don’t change the truth behind that, at least for me and (I think we can assume) for them. This remains a team that has won more than it’s lost. That has led 68 of its 90 games even if 21 of those turned into losses.
