Bogaerts, Holt help red-hot Red Sox enter break with win

BOSTON -- The Boston Red Sox rolled through the pre-All-Star game portion of their schedule piling up wins. Now, they'll have a few days to sit back, relax and enjoy their historic start.

Xander Bogaerts homered in his first at-bat a day after hitting a walk-off grand slam and drove in two runs, leading the Red Sox past the Toronto Blue Jays 5-2 on Sunday to enter the break with their best record since 1949.

"I think we did great. I think the record shows," Red Sox All-Star outfielder Mookie Betts said.
