Since the Red Sox instituted the (nearly)
All-Rookie Line-Up, they've scores 22 runs in two games. Tonight both
Christian Vazquez and
Rusney Castillo logged their first MLB home runs—
in an 11-1 romp over Tampa. Vazquez had four hits and three RBIs, while
Mookie Betts was 3-5 with an RBI.
Bryce Brentz and
Yoenis Cespedes also had two hits each in the 16-hit Boston attack.
Allen Webster pitched well again—going seven innings and giving up just one earned run. And, with their 70th win, the Red Sox eclipsed the
Bobby Valentine Win Threshold (69) achieved back in 2012. Bring on
The Evil Empire and
maybe Derek Jeter.
