Red Sox 4, Tigers 1: How Sweep It Is

If you watched this Sunday afternoon, you were in for a strange one.

I don’t know if it’s that first getaway day feeling, I don’t know if it’s the pitch clock starting to affect game times, I don’t know if this was just two teams who just didn’t care much for this game. This was probably the furthest thing opposite of an instant classic you can come up with for a baseball game.

I need to credit almost the entire pitching staff in this one; they looked solid on the bump today. Kutter Crawford overcame a shaky first inning and tossed five decidedly OK frames.
