Red Sox Facing Walker Buehler Decision After Padres Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Boston Red Sox have been on a tear recently with the AL East up for grabs, and after winning eight of their last ten games, they find themselves just three games behind the Toronto Blue Jays for first place in the division.

Dylan Cease was impressive for six innings before San Diego's All-Star-laden bullpen got into and out of trouble in the seventh and the Padres beat the Boston Red Sox 6-2 to take two of three.

By late Sunday afternoon, when David Morgan finished off the Padres’ series-clinching victory in the East Village, Cora’s words resonated. Padres relievers overwhelmed several Boston hitters. They struck out 14 Sox on Saturday and six more on Sunday, leading the home team to a series win.
