This is only the 2nd time the Sox have lost their 1st game of a season, then won their next 6...The 1904 team lost to the Yankees on Opening Day, then won its next 7 games en route to the AL pennant. FIRST IMPRESSION: Alex Cora is the 7th Red Sox manager to win at least 6 of his first 7 games with the club, joining Ed Barrow (1918), Joe Cronin (1935), Lou Boudreau (1952), Mike Higgins (1955), Billy Herman ( ), and Joe Morgan (1988)...Barrow (7-1) and Morgan (8-0) are the only managers in that group to begin their Sox careers 7-1 or better. MAKE NO MISTAKE: The Red Sox committed 0 errors in their first 7 games, tied for the franchise s longest streak to begin a season (also 2013)...CLE is the only other team without an error this season. OPENING ACT: The Red Sox defeated the Rays in their home opener on Thursday, 3-2 in 12 innings...it marked the 2nd-longest game by innings in a home opener in Fenway Park s 107-year history (1966 vs. BAL, 13 innings). Thursday marked the 8th time in Fenway Park history the Red Sox won their home opener in walk-off fashion, with the last 2 occurring in 1998 vs. SEA (Mo Vaughn grand slam) and 1978 vs. TEX (Jim Rice RBI single). The only other time in Fenway s history in which the Sox won their home opener in 11+ innings was 4/20/1912, the 1st regular season game ever played at the venue (def. NY Highlanders in 11 inn., 7-6). EXTRA! EXTRA!: The Red Sox defeated MIA in 13 innings on Tuesday and beat TB in 12 innings on Thursday...It was the 1st time BOS won consecutive games both in 12+ innings since 4/11-12/1975. Dating back to 2016, the Sox are 18-3 in their last 21 extra-inning games...bos has won its last 9 extra-inning games, tied for the longest such streak in franchise history (also ; source: Elias)...The last team to win 10+ straight extra-inning games was BAL (17 from ). Since the start of 2017, BOS leads the majors in extrainning games (20) and extra innings pitched (244.2). HANLEY S HEROICS: Hanley Ramirez recorded the winning RBI in each of the Sox last 2 games...according to Elias, Ramirez is the 1st player in Sox history to drive in the winning run in the 12th inning or later in consecutive team games... The last major leaguer to do that was Mark McGwire in HANLEY RAMIREZ IN EXTRA INNINGS, GAME INN. HIT TYPE SCORE 7/18/17 vs. TOR 15th Solo HR W, 5-4 9/5/17 vs. TOR 19th RBI single W, 3-2 4/3/18 at MIA 13th 2-RBI double W, 4-2 4/5/18 vs. TB 12th RBI single W, 3-2 IT AIN T OVER TIL IT S OVER: Since the 2017 All-Star break, the Red Sox have won 6 games in which they were trailing after 8 innings: 7/14/17 vs. NYY, 8/13/17 at NYY, 8/16/17 vs. STL, 9/5/17 vs. TOR, 9/15/17 at TB, and 4/5/18 vs. TB. Since the start of 2017, the Sox lead the majors with 19 wins when tied or trailing after 8 innings. 10 of the Sox last 30 regular season wins at Fenway Park have come in walk-off fashion (beginning 6/12/17). CLOSE CALLS: The Red Sox are 4-0 in 1-run games; they last started a season 5-0 in such games in of the last 33 games between the Sox and Rays have been decided by 1 run, including each of the last 4...Another 7 of those 33 were decided by 2 runs. START ME UP: Red Sox starting pitchers are 4-0 with a 0.86 ERA (4 ER/42.0 IP)...According to Elias, this is the Sox lowest starting pitcher ERA through the first 7 games of any season since the AL began recording earned runs in Elias also notes that the last MLB team with a starting pitcher ERA as low through the first 7 games of a season was the 1993 Braves: Greg Maddux, John Smoltz, Steve Avery, Tom Glavine, and Pete Smith (0.56; 4 ER/55.0 IP). ONE AND DONE: Red Sox starting pitchers have allowed 1 or 0 runs in each of the club s 7 games, extending the longest such streak to begin a season in MLB history (previous record: first 5 games) (source: Elias). The last time Sox starters pitched 5.0+ innings and allowed 1 or 0 runs in 7 straight starts at any point in a season was May 12-20, 2000 (8 straight starts). PRICE CHECK: Since returning from the disabled list on 9/14/17, David Price has thrown 29.1 consecutive scoreless innings, including the postseason...he has allowed 0 runs in 14.0 IP in 2018, his longest scoreless streak to begin any season. Price became the 1st Sox pitcher to begin a season with consecutive scoreless starts of 7.0+ IP since Mel Parnell did so in April Price posted a 6.75 ERA in his first 7 starts with the Sox, but he is with a 3.21 ERA (99 ER/277.1 IP) in 46 regular season outings (41 GS) with BOS since then. SUPPORT SYSTEM: Dating back to 2016, the Red Sox have won 21 consecutive games when they provide Rick Porcello with 3+ runs of support...in the last 32 starts in which Porcello received 3+ runs of support, he is 27-0 with a 3.24 ERA (76 ER/211.0 IP); the Sox are 31-1 in those games. Porcello lost 17 games in 2017; he received 2 runs of support or fewer in each of those, including 0 runs in 10 of them. EXTRA EFFORT: On Thursday, Jackie Bradley Jr. led off the bottom of the 12th inning with a double and came around to score the winning run...the Sox have won 40 of the last 50 games (.800) in which Bradley has recorded an extrabase hit, including 15 of the last 17 (.882). GOOD WILL BUNTING: In the 12th inning of Thursday s win over the Rays, Christian Vázquez moved Jackie Bradley Jr. to 3rd base with a sacrifice bunt...it was the Sox 1st successful sac bunt since 7/7/17 at TB (Deven Marrero). BOS played 81 consecutive regular season games without a sac bunt from 7/8/17-4/4/18, the 2nd-longest such streak for any team since Baseball-Reference game logs begin in The only longer streak was a 95-game stretch by the Blue Jays from LEADING OFF: Mookie Betts leads the Red Sox in AVG (.346) and OBP (.452)...Dating back to 2017, he has reached base in each of his last 16 regular season games. Since the start of 2015, Betts leads AL leadoff hitters in hits (394), doubles (94), and runs (239), and ranks 2nd in RBI (200) and XBH (162). DEWEY S DAY: On this date 32 years ago, Dwight Evans homered on the 1st pitch of the 1986 MLB season (at DET, off Jack Morris)...The only other player ever to homer on the 1st pitch of an MLB season is Ian Happ, who did so 9 days ago on 3/29 at MIA (off José Ureña). REMEMBERING BOBBY: Bobby Doerr would have turned 100 years old today (born 4/7/1918)...He was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1986 and into the Red Sox Hall of Fame in He passed away on 11/13/17. Doerr is the only Red Sox player ever to hit for the cycle twice...the 9-time All-Star played 14 seasons with BOS ( , 46-51) before retiring due to a back injury... He missed the 1945 season due to military service.
