Retired Red Sox pitching legend Pedro Martinez isn’t making any predictions about his former team’s World Series chances, but he does have something to say to those who think the Sox will falter down the stretch this postseason.
“Just look at the record that we posted all year,” Martinez told Boston.com at Fenway Park Friday. “That says everything we need to say.”
The 108-54 Red Sox finished the regular season with the best record in baseball and in team history. Led by right fielder Mookie Betts and designated hitter J.D. Martinez, they tallied a league-high number of hits, runs, doubles, and RBI.
