The Boston Red Sox and Houston Astros have been playing some of the best baseball in the MLB over the last couple of years, making for some great matchups when the two clubs meet in the regular season.
Red Sox manager Alex Cora has had the best of both worlds, working for both clubs over the last three seasons. The second-year skipper still remains close with some of his Houston friends (like Alex Bregman, Carlos Correa and Jose Altuve) and has continued some of the “great relationships” he was able to develop during his time with the Astros.
In fact, he thanked the 2017 team for helping him get where he is today.
“(The 2017 season) was a special one, and without ’17, I don’t become the manager of the Red Sox in ’18, so we’ll always be linked together.”
