Aaaaaaaand it’s another sweep. The Red Sox finish off their nine-game road trip with a 7-2 record and they have their third sweep in four series. That seems really good! This one was a little frustrating for the first half before Rick Porcello settled in and the offense started to get going. It’s tough to ever go into a series expecting a sweep, but given how bad the Royals are right now this series can reasonably be described as taking care of business.
The very early parts of this game were quiet on both sides.
