Red Sox 7, Blue Jays 6: A Hell of a Comeback

The Red Sox have played the Blue Jays on two Mondays in a row, but with a very different lineup from last week, since Masataka Yoshida and Wilyer Abreu are both newly returned from the IL, and Reese McGuire gave Connor Wong the night off. (Congratulations on the new baby, Connor!)

The big questions as we start this series: can the Red Sox repeat a series sweep against the down-on-their-luck Jays, and can Tanner Houck continue his dominance (though he took a no-decision against the Jays in the last series)?

They were evenly matched through three, with both Chris Bassitt and Tanner Houck doing well on the mound and getting backup from their defense.
