Red Sox get swept and start the season 1-5 for the first time since 2019. Before that? 2012. Then in 2011 they were 0-6. I don’t believe they’ve ever made the playoffs with that record or worse to start a season.
Alex Cora on the Red Sox play over the last week?
"Not good. We talk about cleaning a lot stuff. Putting the ball in play, play good defense, run the bases better, and overall this whole week wasn't great."
Italy is mauling Team USA. It's 8-0 in the top of the sixth, and because of tiebreaker rules that factor in runs allowed, the Americans have put themselves in a position where if Mexico beats Italy tomorrow, the U.S. could find itself out of the WBC before the knockout round.
