2021-10-09 158

ST. PETERSBURG, FL -- J.D. Martinez & Alex Verdugo spoke to the media after the Boston Red Sox 14-6 Win on Friday.

JD Martinez says that Alex Cora decided to place Alex Verdugo in front of him to protect Devers just in case the ankle bothered him during the game.

He said that BP went good today but yesterday he was "not feeling it".

Alex Verdugo said Alex Cora went up and down the dugout screaming that there were still eight innings to go and “it set the tone” after Chris Sale gave up five runs in the first.

Verdugo also said that: “I love this team, I love this City. I love to play here and I love the fans.”

Chris Sale struggled letting up 5 runs in the 1st inning but Tanner Houck was able to come in and give the Red Sox five innings of one-run relief on Friday.

Boston set a franchise record for most HR hit in a postseason game.

Boston will play Game 3 of the ALDS vs the Tampa Bay Rays at Fenway Park on Sunday.
