The Boston Red Sox’s bullpen recently has been lights out and has been a huge asset to the Sox in extra innings all season.
Entering Wednesday, Boston’s bullpen owns a 1.25 ERA in 57 2/3 innings of work after the ninth frame. Joe Kelly has been especially impressive, as the right-hander has allowed one hit in six innings of work in extra innings.
Craig Kimbrel, Addison Reed, Matt Barnes, Carson Smith and Kelly give manager John Farrell a bevy of high-quality arms he can turn to when the game gets tight.
To hear Farrell discuss the impressive bullpen, check out the video above from “NESN Live,” presented by Cross Insurance.
