Keuchel escapes the second-and-third, 2-out jam by getting a 5-3 from Ramirez. 3 groundouts and a soft-contact double by the Sox in the 1st.by Alex Speier via twitter 10/6/2017 6:18:22 PM

4-1, Pomeranz is done and here comes Carson Smith. This is trying to hold back at the tide at this point.by Pete Abraham via twitter 10/6/2017 7:21:57 PM
