Fresh off a miraculous ninth-inning win supplied by a two-out homer from J.D. Martinez, the resilient Red Sox head to Philadelphia to face Aaron Nola and the Phillies (7:05 p.m., NESN).
Well... that was something! I know this post is technically about today’s game, but it’s hard not to want to ride last night’s momentum as far as it will go. Which, as far as the adage goes, lasts until the Sox — who add Danny Santana to the roster today and immediately put him in the leadoff spot — face down Nola, who is putting together another strong season, though one in which he has room to improve.
