Lucas Giolito’s longest outing in four years propelled the Red Sox to a 6-1, sweep-completing win over Astros on Sunday afternoon. He stifled Houston’s lineup for eight innings, allowing one run and three hits. The lone blemish: a home run from Carlos Correa on a 92-mile-per-hour fastball left over the middle of the middle of the plate.

Lucas Giolito only had one blemish in his start on Sunday, giving up just three hits in eight innings to help the Red Sox sweep the Astros.

What also feels strange is how the Red Sox have taken the series already. I was nervous Friday with Cooper Criswell but he did excellent enough to keep the Red Sox in it. I wasn’t happy with Walker Buehler yesterday but the bullpen came in clutch and the offense launched three homers.
