This certainly was a baseball game. For those who follow run differential and use that to base teams’ talents early in the year, you may have a different view of the Red Sox now. Boston put the White Sox away early and in emphatic fashion with a wild nine-run third inning. It wasn’t just that they scored nine, either. It was that it was all with two outs, and it came after White Sox starter Manny Bañuelos had retired the first eight batters of the ballgame. Michael Chavis led the charge with four hits including two home runs, with Christian Vázquez contributing four hits of his own while Andrew Benintendi got three plus a walk.
