The Red Sox are 10-3 in their past 13 road games and 6-1 in their past seven regular-season visits to the Bronx. Boston opened the series with a 5-3 victory when Willson Contreras hit a two-run homer, drove in three runs and extended his on-base streak to 17 games that has seen him bat .417 (25-for-60).<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
