The Red Sox are playing good baseball this October. Clearly, this isn’t all that much of a surprise since they are the most successful regular-season Red Sox team in history and they rolled through all sorts of competition all year. Still, the playoffs are a different beast and so far, so good. They’ve won five of their first seven games in October, and they’ve done so with a well-rounded performance. The starting pitching has given them some great games, specifically from Nathan Eovaldi and Rick Porcello. The offense has given them some strong efforts, highlighted by the cycle game from Brock Holt in Yankee Stadium and Tuesday night’s outburst in Houston that included Jackie Bradley Jr.
We’re still waiting for the J.D. Martinez game
