Red Sox face prolonged journey points forward of sequence vs. Mets

No video games have been performed, however the Red Sox’s sequence towards the New York Mets is already off to a rocky begin.

That’s because of a sequence of journey points that brought about a 17-hour delay from the time Boston was presupposed to depart Chicago to the time it truly took off. The Red Sox ought to have left Illinois at 9:45 p.m. Eastern Time Thursday evening, touchdown in New York round midnight.

Instead, the staff took off at roughly 3 p.m. ET on Friday. They’ll land round 5 p.m., making it to New York simply barely in time for his or her 7:15 p.m. sport towards the Mets.

The Boston Globe‘s Tim Healey and Alex Speier reported the delay, and their sources didn’t give any particular motive for the problems, simply that Boston “encountered multiple plane issues in trying to continue to New York.”

As of 4 p.m. ET, the Red Sox-Mets sport will proceed as scheduled at 7:15 p.m. Friday. Sonny Gray is about to take the bump for Boston, which enters Friday an undefeated 6-0 on its current highway journey.
