The Red Sox will try to avoid a four-game sweep Thursday when they host the Blue Jays at 4:10 p.m. Here's why the Red Sox might break out after four runs in the first three games of the series.

The Boston Red Sox's offense is firing on all cylinders, and their two All-Star third basemen are right in the thick of the action. Much was made of the perceived drama between the Red Sox and Rafael Devers surrounding the Alex Bregman acquisition in February.

The Boston Red Sox could potentially cut ties with veteran Masataka Yoshida with their surplus of young talent.

Pinch-runner David Hamilton scampered home when the drawn-in Toronto infield couldn't handle Trevor Story's nubber to second base, and the Boston Red Sox beat the Blue Jays 4-3 in 10 innings on Thursday to avoid a four-game sweep.

After being swept by the Mets last weekend, the Blue Jays have a chance to finish a sweep of their own when they conclude a four-game road series against the Red Sox on Thursday afternoon.

Trevor Story's groundout to second in the 10th inning drove in David Hamilton with the game-winning run as the Boston Red Sox earned a 4-3 victory over the visiting Toronto Blue Jays on Thursday.
