Boston: Impressive preseason for Patriot's rookies
🏈Patriots: The rookies came to play in New England’s final preseason game. Quarterback (QB) Mac Jones went 10-for-14 with one touchdown (TD) while running back Rhamondre Stevenson ran for his fifth (!!!) TD of the preseason, leading the Pats to a 22–20 victory over the NY Giants.
- As for the vets, the Pats mostly rested their likely QB1 Cam Newton, but he was still on the field long enough to throw an interception…
⚾️Red Sox: A three-hour rain delay, two Rafael Devers home runs and one blown lead later, the Sox couldn’t secure the sweep over Cleveland, falling 7 –5 in yesterday’s series finale. Sorry, brooms.
Boston’s bullpen has been a problem, and it needs to be figured out quickly: they’ll next face the American League East–leading Tampa Bay Rays (eight games ahead of the Sox) in a crucial four-game series, beginning tonight at 7:10 p.m. ET.
