“We are heartened by the news that this form of cancer is highly treatable and by the knowledge that the quality of care he will be receiving is second to none”. Bradley’s fifth extra-base hit of the game set a Red Sox record.

That’s a monstrous batting line, and it earned Bradley a unique place in history.
Bradley has spent the season shuttling between Triple-A Pawtucket and Boston. “In this type of ballpark with those type of hitters, you’re going to get hurt”. You feel for him.
The Red Sox have at least 15 runs in each of the last two games. It’s the only two times they’ve done it in 100 years.
“I’m so glad”, Sweeney said, “that zero percent chance turned into a 100 percent chance”. “A lot of things happened today, that’s something that I’m most proud of”. “They can take all the time they want”. In fact, 10 of those runs came directly off Hernandez in his 2 1/3 innings.
Sandoval finished the game 1-for-1 with an RBI, a home run and two runs scored.
“Embarrassing”, Hernandez said. “It was embarrassing”. A few minutes to sink in and I figured I had to get back to Boston last night. Hernandez said. “Everything I threw, they put the bat on, and it was a base-hit”. Blake Swihart and Xander Bogaerts each had four hits, while Ortiz, Mookie Betts and Brock Holt had three apiece.
BREWERS 3, PHILLIES 2: In Milwaukee, Scooter Gennett had a career-high four hits and Jimmy Nelson pitched into the seventh inning for the win. Catcher Chris Gimenez had two run-scoring hits and three RBIs, including a two-run home run. Mike Zunino and Austin Jackson also homered.
Miley (9-9) went seven innings. The outing also continued a troubling trend for Hernandez. Travis Shaw would go deep for a second time in the eighth, hitting his fourth homerun of the season off of reliever Rob Rasmussen.
“Felix was fine”, manager Lloyd McClendon said. Both Pablo Sandoval and Jackie Bradley Jr. doubled in runs, extending the lead to 13-1.
The Red Sox posted five-run innings in the second and third, and closed the game with 11 runs over the final three frames. Lovullo also said OF Rusney Castillo was re-examined after leaving Friday’s game early after he fouled a ball off his left foot. He said X-rays were negative. The King previously gave up 10 runs on May 16, 2006, in a 12-6 loss at Oakland.

Three years ago, he was flawless against Tampa Bay in a 1-0 win at Safeco Field. It makes the short list, certainly, but it might not even be his worst of the season.
