1) The number seven has been as lucky as advertised for the Red Sox in recent days, as Boston has put together three separate seven-run innings since Monday (and two in the last two days). It’s the first time that has happened on back-to-back days since May 2019.

Boston racked up seven runs in the inning on its way to a 10-3 victory, its second lopsided win in as many days.

The Boston Red Sox play the Washington Nationals after Trevor Story had four hits on Friday in an 11-2 win over the Nationals.
