The Red Sox sent David Hamilton down to Triple A to clear a roster spot for Bregman, who returned at third base. Romy Gonzalez and Ceddanne Rafaela will mix in at second with Mayer.

While both hit lefties well at Triple A, only Anthony is continuing that success in the majors. In an admittedly small sample size, Anthony is actually hitting slightly better against lefthanded pitching (.233) than righties (.226), though the slug is much better against righties (.415 slugging percentage vs. .233).

When the ball in the eighth reached its apex, my heart stopped! See if you can spot why: This is a brutal play to watch. Not just because of what happened, but also because of who it involved and the fact it could have featured a major collision.
