The Red Sox are just within one win of the World Series. In this post season they have put on a show with some serious big hits. And that strategy has seemed to do wonders for them.
In this post season the Sox are 4-0 on the road. It seems like they would formidably announce their way to the ‘Fall Classic’ by the end of Game 5 that is to be held on Thursday.
“It’s special and we all know it,” said Bradley. “We are doing everything that would possibly win us a ballgame. Though, we are just 1 more triumph away, it feels like we have still got miles to go.”
The team that gains the 3 – 1 lead on the way has gone on to the clinch the series eighty four percent in the history of best of seven series. But the Astros are more dangerous than the Cora and everybody in the Red Sox know it too.
Catch that Benintendi took helped seal an 8-6 win
A day after hitting a grand slam, Bradley, the No. 9 hitter, swung out his third huge hit in as many games.
Another big homer from JBJ
Before getting the job done, the bullpen had to endure some stress that came from the Astros.
Moment that was very crucial
With the Astros down, 8-5, in the 8th, Mookie nabbed Kemp with a great throw. But the throw was belted down the line in right by Kemp. However, the trouble arose when he opted to take a chance to test the arm of his ally and fellow Nashville native, Betts. That decision cost them very dearly as the Nashville native came out like a tracer bullet and nailed Kemp at second. This gave a very precious first out of the inning to Kimbrel.
Currently, the record for the most RBIs in an ALCS is under the belt of the legendary David Ortiz’s franchise. And Bradley is just two RBIs shy of tying the Big Papi’s 11 RBIs that came in 2004.
