Stats Don't Lie
Since 1975*, games the Red Sox played at Texas on the 25th of the month for the first time that season**:
5/25/85: L
5/25/86: W
4/25/87: L
7/25/88: W
8/25/93: L
4/25/00: W
8/25/01: L (game lasted over 6.5 hours)
I'd say we're due for a win tonight.
*I started from '75, since the previous 25th game was in '74, and that's where the back-and-forth streak ends, when working backwards. And we didn't play at Texas after that until '85.
**Meaning if we played at Texas again on a 25th in the same season, that one doesn't count. (Clearly done to keep the back-and-forth in tact.)
