The Red Sox have not come out as hot as they were hoping to in this long five-games-in-four-days series against the Orioles, swapping wins and losses over the first three games to fall behind in the series two games to one. Still, they had a chance to win the set if they could take the last two, and Sunday provided no problems whatsoever. Boston’s offense was hot from the get-go, smashing five home runs off Orioles starter Bruce Zimmermann en route to a plenty big enough lead for Nick Pivetta and company. Now they have a chance to take this series on Monday.
