Looking to rebound after a disappointing 2019, the Boston Red Sox are off to a strong start with a 13-2 win over the Baltimore Orioles at Fenway Park on Friday.
After feeling their way through the first two innings, the Red Sox broke through against Orioles starter Tommy Milone with four runs in the third to open the floodgates. That was more than enough support for Nathan Eovaldi in his first career Opening Day start.
The American League East is always one of the most competitive divisions in Major League Baseball. This year promises to be no different, so for the Red Sox to compete with the New York Yankees and Tampa Bay Rays, these are the kinds of games they have to win.
