The Boston Red Sox beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 4-2 to extend their lead to 2-0 in the ongoing World Series on Thursday night.

The Dodgers appeared to be in control of the game up until J.D. Martinez snatched a comeback with two outs in the fifth inning. David Price added another outing while the bullpen helped secure the final point in Thursday’s Game 2 matchup.

“We knew we were going to have a good team, good lineup, good chemistry, and good energy—but not that good,” Boston’s Eduardo Nunez said. “We can beat you with homers; defense, pitching, base hits, stolen bases. I think we have it all.”

Nunez isn’t wrong. After they won 108 games in the regular season, Boston has won nine of 11 games in the playoffs. The third game of the World Series will be played in LA but the Red Sox team couldn’t be more confident.

The Dodgers fell to the Houston Astros at a time like this year. If they lose to Boston in LA, they will become the first team to lose consecutive World Series games since the Giants in 1936 and 1937, both times to the Yankees.

Boston Red Sox not only look unstoppable this year, but they are also making history. The 6-2 win over Baltimore Orioles on Monday night was 106th for the Red Sox in this season and good enough for a new franchise record.

The previous record was held by the 1912 Red Sox team, who notched 105 wins on their way to winning the franchise’s second World Series. It is important to note that the 1912 team got their 105 wins during the 154-game schedule, while 2018 got to 106 wins in their 157th game of the regular season.

“You think about all the history of the game and the history of this franchise,” – said the team’s manager Alex Cora. “To be part of this, I can’t even explain it. We should call timeout and enjoy this one. We know what we want to do in October, but this one … for us to do it is amazing.“

Things look more than suitable for the Boston Red Sox at the moment. With this win, they have secured the home field advantage through the entire playoffs, since their closest rival, Houston Astros, is currently seven games behind. Also, Red Sox have the history working in their favor. Five out of six times Boston had the best record in the regular season, they managed to win the World Series.

Until the 2018 MLB regular season wraps up, we could see Red Sox breaking another record. If they manage to get four more wins, they will break the record of 1961 New York Yankees as a team with most wins led by a rookie skipper.

Boston Red Sox will have two more games with the Orioles before hosting the Yankees at Fenway Park for the final three games of the regular season.
