The Boston Red Sox capped a four-game sweep of the Baltimore Orioles with a 3-1 victory Sunday, per ESPN. Aroldis Chapman earned his 400th career save in the win. Eli White hit a three-run homer that came following an error by Orioles shortstop Gunnar Henderson.
Payton Tolle took the ball for Boston in the series finale, per multiple outlets. MLB.com's headline references Tolle striking out a dozen batters and performing a one-rep pushup, though the available reporting does not provide additional details on either moment.
The sweep leaves Baltimore in dire straits. The Orioles have lost five straight games and sit three games behind the Toronto Blue Jays for the final Wild Card spot with two teams between them and just 19 games remaining in the regular season, per Over The Monster.
