Boston Red Sox first baseman Steve Pearce started Game 5 of the World Series with a bang, hitting a two-run home run to put his team up over the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Steve Pearce cannot be stopped.
The former South Carolina Gamecock standout blew up Saturday night in Game 4 of the World Series for the Boston Red Sox, driving in four crucial runs in a win to push his team to a 3-1 lead over the Los Angeles Dodgers, one game from a world championship.
In his very first at-bat Sunday, Pearce picked up where he left off, blasting a home run out of Dodger Stadium to give the Red Sox a quick 2-0 lead, and he did so against Clayton Kershaw, one of the best pitchers in baseball.
In his last three at-bats, Pearce is 3-for-3 with 6 RBIs, and if the Red Sox pull out a win Sunday, he’ll be one of the favorites for World Series MVP.
