The Boston Red Sox are still a little bit alive in the AL wild-card race, which means each game is crucial and the intensity every night is palpable.
That was on display Tuesday night in Houston when manager Alex Cora threw an absolute fit after being ejected in the the bottom of the seventh inning after he loudly swore at home plate umpire Pat Hoberg following an Astros walk.
Cora, who had a run-in with Justin Verlander earlier in the game, went out to home plate and got his money’s worth before finally exiting the field. The Red Sox went on to the lose the game, 7-3.
