That was a no-brainer. The baseball game won out over the Republican National Convention. The Red Sox are in front of the AL East by 1 percentage point. The Yankees are 5.5 games back! The Chicago Cubs and the San Francisco Giants have the best percentage at .606. The D'backs are not doing well at all.
Right now the Red Sox are leading and the announcers have spent a lot of time talking about ESPN's Global Baseball https://bosoxinjection.com/2016/07/20/red-sox-does-doug-glanville-know-dominican-flavor/. They are highlighting the players from the Dominican Republic, including David Ortiz, Hanley Ramirez, and from history, Juan Marichal and Pedro Martinez. The integration of baseball by these players is being commented on, and in a scholarly sort of way. This is good sports history as well as good baseball.
