So far, they’re hanging in, despite the Rafael Devers trade, the Kristian Campbell demotion, the early Trevor Story struggles or similar scuffling from Walker Buehler.

Alex Bregman hit a go-ahead, two-run homer in the fifth inning and the Boston Red Sox hung on to beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 4-3 Sunday for a series win.

In the fifth inning, Anthony drilled an opposite-field RBI triple against Dodgers starter Dustin May and Bregman followed by blasting a two-run homer over the Monster Seats to put the Sox ahead, 4-3.

Dustin May will take the mound on Sunday and will hope to continue a good run, as he allowed no runs in 4.2 innings last time out. On the mound for the Red Sox is former Dodger Walker Buehler, who won the World Series with LA in 2020 and 2024. He has a 5.72 ERA this season through 17 starts.

If this was indeed a showcase for Dustin May to make a play to remain a part of the Dodgers’ starting rotation, then the right-hander may be in trouble in the wake of a 4-3 loss to the Red Sox on Sunday afternoon at Fenway Park.

BOSTON — The Red Sox and Dodgers game Sunday at Fenway Park will begin in a rain delay. A message on the ballpark Jumbotron says, “Today’s game will be delayed briefly due to weather in the area. Conditions are expected to improve this afternoon. Further updates will be provided when available.”

Will the Boston Red Sox add more depth for the starting rotation before the trade deadline passes on July 31st? Speculation is running rampant right now. Mock t

With Blake Snell set to return to the starting rotation, the Dodgers might consider parting ways with Dustin May ahead of the MLB trade deadline.

Like Chapman, Jarren Duran has also found himself stuck in a gyre of trade rumors. He doesn’t seem too stressed about it, though, as he fights through the pressure to follow-up on last year’s star performance. (Alex Speier, Boston Globe)
