The good and bad news department certainly has a nice 24-hour turnaround as the Boston Red Sox are tied when they could have been in a 0-2 hole going to New York. Boston will now enter a rambunctious Yankee Stadium set for a sweep and a finish to the Red Sox. I expect a split and a dramatic game five in Boston.
There are certain takeaways from the two games at home against the Yankees and the one most notable one surfaced quickly in-game one – the bullpen. Simply because the playoffs have arrived does not mean that one most documented of all issues has gone into hibernation.
