Monday’s dramatic win could be a turning point for the Red Sox, but it is what they did before the game that might be more important from a team unity standpoint. (Alex Speier; Boston Globe)

Everything seems to be going according to plan for Chris Sale, who is fresh off of two very solid starts to begin his 2021 season. (Alex Reimer; WEEI/Audacy)
