Red Sox usher in new era with win, feel dams are 'about to burst open'

The Boston Red Sox won 5-3 against the Baltimore Orioles on Sunday at Camden Yards, taking the rubber match of a three-game series under new interim manager Chad Tracy, who replaced the fired Alex Cora along with six coaches. Rookie lefty Connelly Early provided a strong pitching performance, while closer Aroldis Chapman secured the final out, surpassing Goose Gossage for second place on a career strikeout list. The victory gave the Red Sox (11-17) an encouraging first result under their new leadership amid a disappointing start to the season.
