Los Angeles blew a 4-0 lead in Game 4 thanks to more terrible moves by manager Dave Roberts, who again removed the starting pitcher for no apparent reason other than to make himself look useful. The Red Sox capitalized on the removal of Rich Hill to come back and win 9-6 to take a commanding lead in the series. Clayton Kershaw goes tonight, and he was knocked around for five runs on seven hits in just four innings in Game 1. Chris Sale was a factor in Saturday's game while not even appearing in the game as he gave a fiery speech in the dugout to spark the Sox. David Price is scheduled to start on Sunday, and he has appeared to have overcome his postseason struggles with two good outings against Houston and the Dodgers. Price gave up two runs on three hits in six innings in Game 2 and was the winning pitcher. Boston has won an astounding 40 of its last 51 interleague games and 21 of 29 interleague games versus left-handed starters. The Red Sox have won Price's last six starts vs. NL teams. Take the Red Sox to win Game 5.
