Anthony would have the third-best on-base percentage in baseball this season if he had enough plate appearances to qualify. The post Red Sox’ Roman Anthony already reaches elite status at getting on-base appeared first on Boston.

BOSTON — Alex Bregman is not in the Red Sox lineup Sunday against the Marlins. Abraham Toro will play third base. Boston will try for a three-game sweep against Miami at Fenway Park. First pitch is scheduled for 1:35 p.m.

Troy Johnston and Agustin Ramirez each hit home runs, but the Miami Marlins lost their third game in a row on Saturday in Boston.

The Boston Red Sox's prospects have had a big impact on this season, but calling up even more talent could tip the scales in their favor.

5) The Red Sox’ home dominance shows no sign of abating. Saturday’s win upped their record to 16-2 over the last 18 games at Fenway and 18-3 in their last 21, dating back to June 30. Only the Toronto Blue Jays, who improved to 42-20 Saturday with a lopsided win over Texas, have a better home record in the American League.
