## Resource

The Red Sox are heating up, riding a five-game win streak against the Angels to close the gap on the Yankees for home-field advantage. With a playoff push in full swing, they’re getting a major boost as pitcher Tanner Houck makes his long-awaited return to the mound tonight—his first game action in over a year after elbow surgery. Set to pitch one inning for Double-A Portland, Houck’s strong rehab performance could see him ramp up to Triple-A next week and potentially join the big league bullpen for the postseason. For a team chasing history, this is more than just a comeback—it’s a critical momentum shift. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
