The Red Sox had a tough task ahead of them today against Jacob deGrom, the likely NL Cy Young winner. He certainly looked every bit the part in this game, but they got one big inning against him thanks to a Brock Holt home run, and then some clutch late-game action from Tzu-Wei Lin, Holt and Andrew Benintendi. On the pitching side, Chris Sale looked good to start and the bullpen was solid, though far from perfect. However, while the Red Sox got the win, Mookie Betts left with an injury, though we hope it’s not too serious.
Red Sox 4, Mets 3: Sox win behind Holt and Lin, as we all expect
