The Red Sox offense finally looked the way we had been expecting them to look for the first two games of this series, jumping out to early leads and running away with two straight wins. To get the sweep, they were going to need to continue that pace against old friend Martín Pérez. While the lefty pitched his way out of the Red Sox rotation by last summer, he is back starting for the Rangers and looking very good so far this season, a rare bright spot on this Texas pitching staff. He was able to keep it up on Sunday, and ultimately squashing any hopes the Red Sox had of pulling off the sweep.
