The defending World Series champion Astros go for a sweep Sunday night at Fenway, where the major league-leading Red Sox had won their last 10 series at home. Boston has only been swept once this season, in a three-game set against Tampa Bay in late August.“I think it’s great that we got off to a good start here, but when the clock strikes midnight tonight it don’t matter,” Bregman said. “I think this team is worried about the next pitch and that’s one of the reasons why we’re good.”Martin Maldonado also homered for Houston and Morton (14-3) delivered a few hours after being activated from the DL.Morton, who missed his last start with discomfort in his right shoulder, allowed two runs and seven hits, striking out three and walking two.

He has reached base in 35 consecutive games and leads the majors with 79 extra-base hits.“He’s at the top of his game as of right now but he’s going to get better,” Hinch said. “He loves baseball. I’ve never seen anybody that loves baseball more than him. He’s kind of what a baseball player is supposed to be like.”LAST CHANCEThe Red Sox were a swing away from walking off with a win. After getting one run against Osuna in the ninth, Martinez — who has 39 homers and 117 RBIs — was up with runners at first and third with one out.Martinez hit a grounder to short that started a routine double play, ending hopes of a comeback.“That’s one of the good things when you play here and give yourself a chance, good things can happen Nick Wittgren Jersey ,” Bogaerts said. “We had obviously one of our best players at the plate right there and he didn’t come through, but nine out of 10 times he will.”TRAINER’S ROOMAstros: RHP Lance McCullers Jr. (strained right forearm) threw 30 pitches during a bullpen sessions.

SEATTLE (AP) — Clayton Kershaw has rarely needed much run support to pull out a win. The Los Angeles Dodgers made sure Sunday he had more than enough for a milestone victory.The Dodgers scored five runs before Kershaw took the mound, and the three-time NL Cy Young Award winner shut down the Seattle Mariners over seven innings for his 150th career win in a 12-1 rout.The offensive explosion came a day after the Mariners beat Los Angeles on a 10th-inning Julio Urias Jersey , game-ending balk.“To lose it in that situation is tough.

That was awesome today.”Kershaw (6-5) gave up one run on four hits, struck out seven and walked one. The 30-year-old lefty improved to 150-69.Justin Turner tied career highs with four hits and five RBIs, including a three-run homer in the ninth inning with position player Andrew Romine on the mound.

He had been on the disabled list with a left triceps strain since July 31 and was activated to start against the Dodgers. Elias lasted three innings, giving up the five runs and seven hits.“Elias usually goes out there and competes and lets it fly and takes his chances. We didn’t see today that in the first inning,” Seattle manager Scott Servais said. “You get behind early like that to a really good club it can get ugly.”Los Angeles kept adding to the lead against the Mariners bullpen, scoring a run in five of the last six innings.Ryon Healy had two of Seattle’s five hits, including a run-scoring single in the fourth.ROSTER MOVEBefore the game http://www.dodgersfanproshop.com/authentic-max-muncy-jersey , the Mariners recalled RHP Chasen Bradford from Triple-A Tacoma and optioned INF Gordon Beckham and LHP James Pazos to Tacoma.TRAINER’S ROOMDodgers: SS Manny Machado left the game after being hit on the wrist by Romine in the ninth.
