It was a good night from him,” said Red Sox manager Alex Cora. The game was declared official after a rain delay of 52 minutes that started just following a completely wild bottom of the sixth.”
““I think it’s hilarious. It’s hilarious. Every time you’re in this position it’s exciting.” So even though the Red Sox figure to get a huge boost with the return of Chris Sale in August and they infused the clubhouse with talented youth this weekend by calling up No. I think at the end of the day it’s what we owe our fans.”
“Manager Alex Cora had planned on getting him a day off at some point this weekend or in Buffalo, N.Y., when the Red Sox face the Blue Jays anyway.
