On Saturday, the Boston Red Sox will continue their series with the Athletics at Fenway Park.
They are coming off a 13-1 win on Friday.
Bob Nightengale of USA Today wrote: “Ho-hum, the Boston Red Sox win another one. 13-1 over the Athletics. That’s 9 victories in a row, and a franchise-record 27 victories in their last 30 games. They are currently tied with the Yankees for 2nd place in the AL East after being 15 1/2 games back this year. Stunning.”

Recently, the Red Sox acquired Adley Rutschman in a trade with the Baltimore Orioles.

Following the trade, Rutschman made a heartfelt post to Instagram.
He wrote: “Birdland
Thank you for making Baltimore feel like home.
The relationships I’ve built, the memories we’ve made, and the support you’ve shown me are things I’ll carry with me for the rest of my life. From being drafted, to making my debut, to experiencing the postseason, I’m incredibly proud of everything we accomplished together and I’ll always be grateful for the journey and everyone who was a part of it. Thank you to my teammates, the organization, and especially the fans who believed in me and supported me every step of the way.
Baltimore will always hold a special place in my heart. Thank you for everything🧡”
Here’s what people were saying in the comments:
@chasecoburn: “Adley, we’ll miss you. Good luck in Boston (except for like 13 games a year haha)”
@arun_rajadhyaksha: “Fan favorite man, if only it could’ve worked out. I remember that triple like it was yesterday, brought hope to a fan base who had come to expect disappointment. I’m not gonna say kill it in Boston, but know Birdland is pulling for you”
@stacy_m_529: “My kids and I will always remember walking out from an O’s game two summers ago on a Friday night. We crossed a crosswalk right in front of your car, my son spotted you, and yelled ADLEY RUTSCHMAN! And you waved and gave us the heart hands 🫶. Thank you for everything and you will be SO missed in that Orioles jersey! 🧡🖤”
