Uhh, Brock, i think they have won 2 in a row and are threatening their season high 3 win streak later tonight.
Note that for the Sox , there is a huge difference between sweeping ( 3-0) and winning the series 2-1., a net gain of 1. An improvement no doubt, but a limited one.
Sweep and reduce the deficit to .500 to 5 games., Lose and go back to 7 off a mediocre pace. Should they go on a run and climb back to .500 by Memorial Day, then something very good will have happened.
