Where are the Red Sox in these conversations?  This is a question we would LOVE an answer to!

Freddie Freeman, Shohei Ohtani, Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Will Smith could not be stopped despite best efforts from Max Scherzer, Kevin Gausman, Vladimir Guerrero, Jr and Bo Bichette who played their hearts out.

Absolutely amazing!

Recap of Cleveland Guardians vs. Detroit Tigers, Chicago Cubs vs. San Diego Padres, LA Dodgers vs. Cincinnati Reds and Boston Red Sox vs. NY Yankees.

Pitching was the name of the game with Garrett Crochet vs. Max Fried.  

Discipline at the plate from Ceddanne Rafaela, astute base running from Nick Sogard and the pinch hit prowess of Masataka Yoshida but the Red Sox in the lead.

Game 2 of the Red Sox against Toronto is on 9/24/25 with Garrett Crochet, reaching a career high inning count this season, facing Max Scherzer.

The Sox have done well this season away from home which is helpful as they took 2 games from Tampa Bay over the weekend and the first one from the Blue Jays.

Can they continue?
