Red Sox plane issues reportedly leave team stuck in Chicago hours before game in New York
Key Points:
- The Boston Red Sox are delayed in Chicago due to multiple plane issues but still plan to play their scheduled game against the New York Mets on Friday at 7:15 p.m. ET.
- The team took off around 3:00 p.m. ET and is expected to land just before 5:00 p.m. ET, leaving just over two hours to reach Citi Field and prepare for the game.
- The Red Sox are currently on a six-game winning streak and have won 11 of their last 13 games, playing some of their best baseball this season.
- Despite travel disruptions earlier this season, including a late-night arrival before a game against the Yankees, the Red Sox have shown resilience and the ability to perform well under such conditions.
- The Mets have struggled this season, so the Red Sox are favored to continue their success, though any sluggish start could be attributed to their travel delays.
