""As we're nearing the end here, I don't want to have any regret on my mind here in a couple weeks." Garrett Crochet brushed aside talk of the stakes involving Sunday's start against the Yankees. For Boston's ace, every start presents the same level of urgency for both himself and his ballclub. "Really, from April on, every game counts," the lefty said postgame."
""I think we should stop talking about October, to be honest with you," Cora said on Saturday. "There's a lot of stuff going on and we have to play better. I'm not saying we're in a bad spot. But we have to wait to see if October is part of this." Even though Boston entered Sunday still in playoff position within the American League Wild-Card standings, Cora's team had little in terms of breathing room with just two weeks to go in the regular season."
Garrett Crochet prioritized urgency and avoided dwelling on the stakes, saying he did not want regret. He emphasized that every game counts from April onward. Manager Alex Cora urged stopping talk of October and noted the team must play better amid uncertainty. The Red Sox entered Sunday still in a Wild-Card spot but had little breathing room with two weeks remaining, having gone 6-8 over 14 games and falling to a tie with the Astros and only two games ahead of the Rangers. Crochet delivered six innings, allowed three runs, and struck out 12, helping Boston snap the skid and win 6-4.
