My Comment: Congratulations to Navarro on his first Major League homerun! That pinch-hit long ball certainly put the game away and insured a Red Sox win. Hitting ruled the game today on both sides, but Boston was somewhat better at it this Saturday evening. The Red Sox go for the sweep tomorrow as they end this current road trip. In any case, Boston has won the series. Go for it Boston!
