The Boston Red Sox may not have an ace on their staff, but their offense has been up to the challenge of facing opposing team’s top starters on this homestand. Over the past week the red hot Red Sox have roughed up Felix Hernandez and Corey Kluber. Now they can add Johnny Cueto to that list.
The Red Sox struck first with a line drive off the left field wall by Blake Swihart to drive in the first run of the game.
