Red Sox 9, Astros 5: A grand time in Houston

After a tough loss on Friday to start off the the ALCS, but the goal heading into these first two games was just to get one. Heading back to Fenway with a 1-1 series tie would put them in a good position to take this series and get home field back in their hands. They quickly took care of business on that front, hitting a grand slam in each of their first two innings to take an early 8-0 lead. From there, it was just up to Nathan Eovaldi and company to not let Houston have an offensive explosion of their own.
