BOSTON -- J.D. Martinez's May mash party is coming to an end, but only because the calendar flips on Friday. The slugger doesn't look like he is going to cool off any time soon.
Martinez came up in just the right spot for the Red Sox on Wednesday afternoon at Fenway Park, unloading for a two-run shot that soared over everything in left field in the bottom of the sixth to snap a tie and lead the Red Sox to a 6-4 victory over the Blue Jays to complete a three-game sweep.
It was Martinez's 13th homer of May, the most by a Red Sox player in one month since David Ortiz belted 14 in July 2006.
