Texas RangersvsBoston Red Sox
TEX 1/BOS 10
Things to say
Red Sox blew out the Rangers 10-1 at Fenway.
01
opener
Sox rolled the Rangers 10-1 at Fenway last night. Wasn't even close. Texas bats just never showed up.
02
key player
Whoever was in the heart of that Boston order was locked in — they were squaring everything up all night.
03
hot take
Texas is hovering around .500 and starting to look like a team that peaked in April.
04
deep cut
Bochy went to the pen way too early once it got out of hand — burned arms in a nine-run game on a getaway day.
05
exit
Anyway, we'll see if the Rangers can punch back tonight or if Boston runs the table on this series.
The recap
Boston absolutely flattened Texas at Fenway, 10-1, and it was never really a ballgame after the middle innings. The Rangers' starter got knocked around early and the bullpen couldn't stop the bleeding, while the heart of the Red Sox order kept piling on.
No single hero here, just a full-lineup beatdown on a damp Friday night. Texas drops back under .500 and Boston finally looks like they're swinging the bats they were supposed to.
