The Fenway throng of 38, was buzzed and boisterous for the Game 4 coronation. True that. This looked prophetic when de facto Boston captain Xander Bogaerts blasted a two-run homer off Zack Greinke to give the Red Sox a lead in the bottom of the first. Then the faucets were turned off.

The Red Sox were 0 for 9 with runners in scoring position and left nine runners aboard in the final eight innings. No more Oprah Winfrey-esque " You get a grand slam! You get a grand slam!

Rafael Devers has the most postseason RBI 26 by a player before turning Meanwhile, Boston left-handed pitcher Chris Sale might have some nightmares about Astros slugger Yordan Alvarez as the latter player had three hits off the former, helping break the game open during a five-run sixth inning. Alvarez went opposite field three times, once for a home run, once for a single and once for a two-run double as Houston built a lead.

Yordan strikes again! He has driven in all 3 for the Astros! The victory brings the Astros to the brink of their third World Series appearance in five years with Games 6 and 7 back at Minute Maid Park in Texas this weekend. She was refused entry to a prestigious private school because of this.
