Was Red Sox’s Comeback Vs. A’s Made Possible By This Stephen King Tweet?

Stephen King at the spiritual reigns of your favorite baseball team? Now that is a scary thought.

… Or so you’d think.

But then a funny thing happened: The Red Sox rallied.

Boston surged in the third inning and tied the score at 4-4, with Xander Bogaerts’ game-tying RBI double coming roughly five minutes after King sent his tweet.

The Red Sox scored two more runs in the frame to take a 6-4 lead after three innings. Alex Cora’s club went on to win by a final score of 9-4.
