The Red Sox offense finally came alive in their first series at Fenway Park — and it was fireworks. After a slow start to the season, the top of the order caught fire, with hitters 1-5 combining for a .380 batting average against St. Louis. Rafael Devers has been on an absolute tear since breaking out of his early slump, and Alex Bregman looked every bit like the Fenway monster he’s always been, putting up a 1.456 OPS in his home debut.TJ breaks down what clicked for the Sox lineup, why Fenway might be the key to unlocking this team's offensive ceiling, and how Boston could finally flip the script on their recent home struggles. He also looks at the early warning signs with the pitching staff — from Walker Buehler’s velocity drop to the bullpen showing its first cracks — and touches on a few defensive concerns that the Sox can’t afford to ignore.
