While the Red Sox win on Thursday was not the prettiest victory in the history of baseball, they did get a bright spot in Franchy Cordero snapping out of an extended slump with a multi-hit day. On Friday, it was Bobby Dalbec’s turn. He smacked a base hit in his first at bat, then had a huge homer in the next one. The homer would end up being the difference in this game and push the Red Sox to victory. Boston also got a good start from Rodriguez in which he managed to put up results without his best stuff, and they got two scoreless innings from Garrett Whitlock.
Red Sox 6, Orioles 2: First to 20
