The Boston Red Sox continued their fine run of form in the ongoing MLB postseason with a dominant win over the Houston Astros in the ALCS yesterday. After scoring two Grand Slams in Game 2, the Red Sox added another one in Game 3 to begin their march towards an emphatic 12-3 win.

In Game 2, which took place in the Minute Maid Park, J. D. Martinez and Rafael Devers smashed a Grand Slam each. This made the Red Sox the first team to score two Grand Slams in a single postseason game. While they made history on Saturday, Kyle Schwarber made more of it yesterday.

Kyle Schwarber smashes third Grand Slam for the Boston Red Sox in the ALCS

The Red Sox narrowly missed out on opening the ALCS with a victory against the Astros last Friday. However, they left the sorrows of that night behind with stellar hitting in Game 2, and they took it up a notch in Game 3.

In the bottom of the second inning, the Red Sox loaded all bases. Following this, Christian Vázquez and Christian Arroyo drove in a run each, giving the Red Sox a 2-0 lead. However, Schwarber delivered the biggest hit of the entire inning just moments later.

The 28-year-old smashed a 93mph pitch from José Urquidy straight into the stands on the right side of the field. This gave the Red Sox a massive 6-0 lead over the AL West champions, drawing loud cheers from fans at Fenway Park.
