    Game #84 of Season

    Boston Red Sox (51-32) @ Toronto Blue Jays (45-38)
    Pitching Matchup – Kutter Crawford vs Yusei Kikuchi

    The Red Sox opened the scoring with 2 outs in the top of the 1st when Kikuchi tried to sneak a fastball past Rafael Devers who crushed a 430 foot blast for a 2-run HR that hit high off the batters eye in straight away CF putting Boston up 2-0. The Red Sox doubled their lead with 2 outs in the top of the 2nd when Kikuchi hung a breaking ball to Jorge Alfaro who drove it the opposite way for a 2-run HR to RF making it 4-0. Kutter Crawford was sharp early and retired the first 6 Blue Jays hitters and we would head to the 3rd inning with the Red Sox leading 4-0. The Red Sox continued to knock Kikuchi around in the top of the 3rd as he left a slider up in the zone to Rob Refsnyder who launched a solo HR to LF to make it 5-0. Kutter retired the side in order in the bottom of the 3rd and we would go to the 4th inning with Boston up 5-0. Jorge Alfaro doubled with 2 outs in the top of the 4th and Jarren Duran made it 6-0 with a RBI single up the middle. Crawford struck out Bichette and Belt to end the bottom of the 4th and Crawford was perfect through 4 innings retiring the first 12 Blue Jays batters of the game and we would head to the 5th inning with the Red Sox leading 6-0. Mitch White was on the mound for Toronto and the Red Sox continued to swing the bats as Adam Duvall lined a rocket over the wall in LF for a 2-run HR to push the lead to 8-0. Crawford struck out Guerrero and Merrifield in the bottom of the 5th and had now retired 15 straight to start the game and we would move to the 6th inning with Boston leading 8-0. Crawford struck out Varsho leading off the bottom of the 6th for his 9th K and Danny Jansen followed with a liner into CF for a single breaking up the perfect game bid after Crawford retired 16 in a row. Crawford struck out Kiermaier on a curve ball for his 10th K and retired Springer to end the 6th and send the game to the 7th inning with the Red Sox up 8-0. White retired the side in the top of the 7th and Crawford recorded two more Ks in the bottom of the 7th giving him 12 Ks on the night and sending the game to 8th inning with Boston up 8-0. The Blue Jays got back to back singles from Chapman and Merrifield to start the bottom of the 8th but Crawford would record back to back Ks of Varsho and Jansen for his 13th & 14th K before Kiermaier grounded out to Hernandez at SS to send the game to the 9th inning at 8-0. Chris Murphy took over for Crawford on the mound for the bottom of the 9th and singles by Bichette and Belt with 1 out put runners on the corners for Vladimir Guerrero Jr who delievered a RBI single into RF getting the Jays on the board 8-1. Murphy came back to strikeout Chapman and Merrifield to end the ball game and the Red Sox win 8-1

        TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
        Game #85 of Season

        Boston Red Sox (52-32) @ Toronto Blue Jays (45-39)
        Pitching Matchup – Garrett Whitlock vs Kevin Gausman

        The Blue Jays opened the scoring in the bottom of the 1st when Bo Bichette took Whitlock deep for a solo HR. The Red Sox answered in the top of the 2nd against Gausman when Triston Casas doubled with 2 outs and Kike Hernandez followed with a deep fly ball down the LF line that was hooking and just stayed fair for a 2-run HR giving Boston a 2-1 lead. Whitlock struck out the side in the bottom of the 2nd and we would head to the 3rd inning with the Red Sox leading 2-1. The score remained 2-1 until the bottom of the 5th when Daulton Varsho came up with 1 out and runners on 2nd & 3rd and delivered a two run single up the middle giving Toronto a 3-2 lead. The Blue Jays put two men in scoring position again as Bo Bichette came up with 2 outs and Bichette would hit a ground ball up the middle to knock in two runs and make it a 5-2 ball game. The Jays looked to add to the lead when George Springer drove a ball deep toward the corner in RF that hit high off the wall just missing a HR but Bichette would get thrown out at home plate on a well executed relay from Verdugo to Chang to Wong for the 3rd out but the Blue Jays strike for 4 runs and take a 5-3 lead into the 6th inning. Rafael Devers battled Gausman to a full count with 1 out in the top of the 6th and would launch his 30th HR of the season to cut the deficit to 5-3. Danny Jansen walked and Brandon Belt singled with 1 out in the bottom of the 6th and Whitlock would exit as John Schreiber came in from the pen with two men on and 1 out. Schreiber struck out Chapman for a big 2nd out before walking Varsho to bring up Santiago Espinal for a huge at bat with the bases loaded. Schreiber would get Espinal to bounce back to the mound as he escapes the jam and the Jays strand the bases loaded sending the game to the 7th with Toronto leading 5-3. The Red Sox were threatening after a Kike Hernandez double and Yu Chang single put runners on the corners with 1 out in the top of the. Tim Mayza would come in from the pen to take over for Gausman with red hot Jarren Duran who has been killing Blue Jays pitching in the series and he came through again with a ground ball up the middle into CF for a RBI single making it a one run game 5-4. Alex Verdugo followed with a ground ball up the middle for a RBI single as Chang scores to tie the game 5-5. Justin Turner was up next and made it 4 straight hits for Boston as he laced a RBI double in the gap in right-center to give Boston a 6-5 lead and bring up Devers with runners on 2nd & 3rd still with 1 out. Nate Pearson would replace Mayza on the mound and he would battle Devers to a full count before fooling him with a changeup for a huge strikeout for the 2nd out. Pearson would follow it up with a strikeout of Masataka Yoshida as he comes in with two men in scoring position and strands them to keep it a one run game but the Red Sox now had a 6-5 lead. The Blue Jays came right back in the bottom of the 7th against Schreiber as Kiermaier singled and Bichette doubled to put runners on 2nd & 3rd with nobody out. Schreiber would get a big K for the 1st out as he got Springer on a slider bringing up Vladimir Guerrero. Alex Cora would call for the intentional walk as Schreiber will put Guerrero on to load the bases and take his chances against Danny Jansen. Schreiber tried to put Jansen away with a slider away but he was able to get the bat on it and hit a routine fly ball to LF but the speedy Kiermaier was able to beat the throw home from Yoshida for a sac fly tying the game at 6-6. Joely Rodriguez replaced Schreiber on the mound and struck out Brandon Belt to get out of the inning and send the game to the 8th tied 6-6. Triston Casas led off the top of the 8th with a single and Yu Chang drew a 2 out walk against Pearson to bring up Jarren Duran but he would ground out to Espinal at second base as Pearson escapes the jam and the score remains tied 6-6. Matt Chapman singled off Rodriguez to being the bottom of the 8th and Alejandro Kirk would pinch hit for Varsho. Alex Cora countered by bringing in righty Chris Martin but Kirk would drop a single into CF putting two men on with nobody out. Espinal would move the runners up with a sac bunt and Cora would again call for the intentional walk putting Kiermaier on to load the bases for Bo Bichette who was a triple shy of the cycle on the night. Bichette fouled off several tough pitches away with 2 strikes before Martin came back up and in with a fastball on the 10th pitch of the at bat and froze Bichette for a huge strikeout. George Springer stepped in with the bases loaded and 2 outs and Martin would miss his location on a fastball catching too much of the plate and Springer would drive it deep to CF sending Duran back and all he could do is look up as Springer breaks the tie with a grand slam HR to put Toronto up 10-6. Jay Jackson would pitch a scoreless top of the 9th as they win 10-6 and take 2 out of 3 from the Red Sox

        GAME NOTES

            TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
            Game #86 of Season

            Texas Rangers (49-36) @ Boston Red Sox (52-33)
            Pitching Matchup – Martin Perez vs Tanner Houck

            The Rangers were threatening in the top of the 2nd with runners on 2nd & 3rd and 1 but Tanner Houck would escape as he struck out Mitch Garver and then made a flashy behind the back grab to snare a ball headed up the middle and threw to first to retire Josh Jung and keeping the game scoreless. The Red Sox were threatening with two men on with 1 out in the bottom of the 3rd when Jarren Duran ripped a liner into CF for a single but that ball was hit so hard that Leody Taveras was able to gun down Hernandez at the plate. Alex Verdugo followed with a deep fly ball to RF but Adolis Garcia would make the catch on the warning track as Perez escapes and we would head to the 4th inning tied 0-0. Leody Taveras would record his 2nd outfield assist when he gunned down Justin Turner going for a double on a fly ball off the green monster with a perfect throw to second base for the final out of the 4th sending the game to the 5th inning tied 0-0. Houck and Perez continued pitching well as they were both through 6 shutout innings on the mound and we were headed to the 7th inning locked in a scoreless tie 0-0. Houck was getting stronger as the game went along and recorded his 9th K when he froze Mitch Garver with a nasty slider as he retires the side in the top of the 7th keeping it a 0-0 ball game. Perez retired Casas and Arroyo for two quick outs to begin the bottom of the 7th before Kike Hernandez stepped in and got a first pitch changeup from Perez that stayed up in the zone and Hernandez hammered a rocket into the green monster seats for a solo HR to give the Red Sox a 1-0 lead. Houck was at 85 pitches as he returned to the mound for the top of the 8th and retired Josh Jung before Ezequiel Duran dropped a single into RF to put the tying run on base with 1 out. Leody Taveras would bounce into a fielders choice as he userd his speed to beat out a double play ball and bring Travis Jankowski to the plate with 2 outs. Alex Cora would make the move to lefty Brennan Bernanrdino out of the pen as the Rangers had 3 straight left-handed hitters due up in Jankowski, Seager and Lowe. Bernardino made Cora look good as he struck out Jankowski swinging on a filthy breaking ball away to end the top of the 8th with Boston leading 1-0. Brock Burke took over on the mound for Texas and Boston would put two men on before Burke got Devers to bounce into a 3-6-3 inning ending double play to send the game to the 9th inning with the Red Sox leading 1-0. The Rangers came up to bat in the top of the 9th trailing 1-0 with Kenley Jansen coming on to try and close it out for Boston. Jansen retired Seager on a ground out for the 1st out and thought he had strike 3 looking on a close pitch against Nathaniel Lowe but the home plate umpire called it a ball and Lowe would line the next pitch into the RF corner for a double to put the tying run in scoring position with 1 out for Texas. Jansen came back and got Marcus Semien to pop up to Casas on the first pitch of the at bat for a huge 2nd out and the Rangers were down to their final out. Adolis Garcia would step in with the Fenway crowd on its feet and Jansen would strikeout Garcia on a nasty slider for the final out as the Red Sox hang on for a 1-0 victory

            GAME NOTES
            * The Red Sox get a terrific performance on the mound from Tanner Houck and Kike Hernandez snapped a 0-0 tie with a solo HR in the bottom of the 7th to give Boston a 1-0 win in the opener of this 3 game series

                TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
                Game #87 of Season

                Texas Rangers (49-37) @ Boston Red Sox (53-33)
                Pitching Matchup – Jon Gray vs Brayan Bello

                The Rangers jumped out to a quick lead as Marcus Semien jumped a fastball on the first pitch of the ball game and launched it over the green monster for a solo HR giving Texas a 1-0 lead. Jon Gray was pitching well early for Texas and the score remained 1-0 through 3 innings. Texas added to their lead with 2 outs in the top of the 4th when Ezequiel Duran dropped a soft liner into CF for a RBI single making it 2-0. Bello should have been out of the inning but Kike Hernandez booted a ground ball allowing Travis Jankowski to reach and bring up Leody Taveras with two on & two outs. Bello would avoid the big inning getting Taveras to fly out to Duran in CF ending the top of the 4th and Gray pitched a scoreless bottom of the inning to send the game to the 5th inning with Texas leading 2-0. Bello struck out Semien to start the top of the 5th before walking Corey Seager and tried to sneak a high fastball past Nathaniel Lowe who turned on it and hit a 2-run HR down the RF line opening up a 4-0 lead. Gray retired the side in the bottom of the 5th to send the game to the 6th inning with the Rangers up 4-0. Chris Murphy took over for Bello and pitched a scoreless top of the 6th and the Red Sox bats came alive as Alex Verdugo led off the bottom of the 6th by launching a solo HR into the Red Sox bullpen to get the Sox on the board 4-1. Masataka Yoshida followed with a double and Rafael Devers walked to put two men on for Adam Duvall with nobody out. Duvall lined a rocket into LF for a single advancing the runners up one base and suddenly the bases were loaded with nobody out for Triston Casas and the Mets were sticking with Gray as they still did not have anybody warming up in the pen. Casas jumped on a first pitch fastball from Gray and smoked a line drive deep to LF hitting about half way up the green monster for a two run double as Yoshida & Devers score making it 4-3 but Duvall was thrown out at 3rd base. Christian Arroyo was up next and dropped a RBI single into shallow LF scoring Casas and tying the game 4-4. Bruce Bochy made his way to the mound and brought in Glenn Otto to take over for Gray still with 1 out. Otto retired Kike Hernandez for the 2nd out before Connor Wong RBI double to right-center scored Arroyo from first base giving the Red Sox a 5-4 lead. Otto would retire Duran to finally bring the inning to an end after the Red Sox send 9 men to the plate and score 5 runs to turn a 4-0 deficit into a 5-4 lead heading to the 7th inning. Murphy recorded the 1st out in the top of the 7th before Semien singled and Seager lined a ball down the RF line for a ground rule double putting runners at 2nd & 3rd base with 1 out for Nathaniel Lowe who homered in his previous at bat. Alex Cora stuck with Murphy for the lefty matchup against Lowe who lined a ball towards the gap in left-center but was robbed of extra bases on a terrific diving catch by Yoshida but Semien would tag up and score to tie the game 5-5. John Schreiber replaced Murphy on the mound with 2 outs and Adolis Garcia would clean out an inside fastball and launch a 2-run HR over the green monster to give the Rangers a 7-5 lead. Otto allowed a 1 out single to Yoshida in the bottom of the 7th and was replaced by Aroldis Chapman who coming on to make his first appearance in a Rangers uniform after being acquired a few days ago. Chapman allowed a single to Devers and that would bring up Duvall with two on & 1 out and he would drive a ball off the wall in left-center for a RBI double scoring two runs and tying the game back up at 7-7. Casas followed with a single to RF but Duvall had to hold at 3rd base setting up runners on the corners with 1 out for Arroyo. Jonathan Hernandez replaced Chapman on the mound and would get Arroyo to pop out and Hernandez to ground out as he escapes the jam sending the game to the 8th inning with the score even 7-7. Ezequiel Duran doubled with 1 out in the top of the 8th but Schreiber would get Taveras to pop out to Devers ending the threat and stranding Duran in scoring position keeping it a 7-7 game. Josh Sborz came on and retired the side in order in the bottom of the 8th to send the game to the 9th inning locked in a 7-7 tie. Josh Winckowski pitched a 1-2-3 top of the 9th striking out Seager & Lowe to send the game to the bottom of the 9th where the Red Sox would have a chance to walk off with a victory and Yerry Rodriguez would come on to pitch for Texas with Yoshida, Devers & Duvall due up for Boston. Yoshida hit the ball hard on the ground to the left side where Jung knocked it down with a diving stop but had no play as Yoshida reaches with a lead off single. Devers followed with a ground ball in the hole to the right side that was knocked down on a dive by Semien and Devers would reach putting two on with nobody out for Duvall. Alex Cora decided not to bunt and would let Duvall swing away and Duvall would fly out to Taveras in CF for the first out. Casas flew out to Taveras who made a nice catch crashing into the wall and Yoshida would tag and advance to 3rd bringing up Justin Turner as a pinch hitter for Arroyo with runners on the corners and 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th. Turner would hit a bouncer to Jung who made the play to end the inning and send the game to extra innings tied 7-7. Winckowski retired the side in the top of the 10th striking out Jonah Heim to end the frame and strand the extra innings runner at second base. Turner was on second base to begin the bottom of the 10th for Boston and he would advance to 3rd when Connor Wong flew out to deep CF with 1 out bringing up Jarren Duran with 2 outs and the potential winning run 90 feet away at 3rd base. Rodriguez would get Duran to fly out to CF sending the game to the 11th inning. The Rangers would get a RBI double from Duran and a RBI single from Taveras in the top of the 11th to take a 9-7 lead. Nick Pivetta came on to record the last two outs and Will Smith would come on to pitch the bottom of the 11th for Texas. Smith would record two outs and the Red Sox were down to their final out as Devers came to the plate representing the tying run but he would bounce back to Smith on the mound for the final out as the Rangers win a wild one 9-7 in 11 innings

                GAME NOTES
                * The Red Sox lose a tough one to the Rangers 9-7 in 11 innings and the teams have split the first 2 games of this 3 game series

                * The Red Sox fall to 53-34 while the Rangers improve to 50-37 on the season

                * Brayan Bello pitched 5 innings allowing 4 runs on 4 hits with 1 walk & 6 Ks as he continues a recent string of mediocre starts after a stretch where he was lights out for a while. Bello is now sporting a 3.29 ERA and will be working with the pitching coach to try and get back on track

                * Jon Gray pitched 5.1 innings allowing 5 runs on 7 hits with 3 walks & 6 Ks earning a no decision

                * Masataka Yoshida and Triston Casas had 3 hit nights for Boston and Alex Verdugo went 2 for 6 with a HR and is now hitting .256 with 12 HR & 29 RBI

                * The Rangers got home runs from Nathaniel Lowe who is now hitting ,291 with 9 HR & 40 RBI, Marcus Semien who is hitting .260 with 14 HR & 45 RBI and Adolis Garcia who is hitting .267 with 16 HR & 42 RBI

                * Jarren Duran went 0 for 6 ending his 8 game hitting streak

                * TRADE * - The Red Sox made a move after the game sending Kike Hernandez to the Los Angeles Dodgers for minor league relief pitchers Nick Robertson and Justin Hagenman. The Red Sox needed to clear a spot on the roster with INF Pablo Reyes set to come off the injured list tomorrow and SS Trevor Story nearing a return as he is currently with AAA Worcester for the final phase of his rehab assignment as he works his way back from off-season surgery

                * The Red Sox and Rangers wrap up this 3 game series tomorrow with a rubber match after splitting the first two games of the series. Kutter Crawford takes the mound for Boston while former Red Sox star Nathan Eovaldi gets the start for Texas in the series finale and will make his return to Fenway Park after signing a 2 year / $34 million with the Rangers in free agency this past off-season

                I am posting strictly box scores and highlights from now on with shortened game notes and no more full game story. I am spending too much time typing these up which makes the games take much longer to play. I am going to try and knock out more games in less time going forward

                    TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
                    Game #88 of Season

                    Texas Rangers (50-37) @ Boston Red Sox (53-34)
                    Pitching Matchup – Nathan Eovaldi vs Kutter Crawford

                    The Red Sox jumped out to an early 5-0 lead on home runs by Alex Verdugo, Masataka Yoshida and Justin Turner as they knocked Nathan Eovaldi out of the game after just 1.2 innings of work. The Red Sox still have a 5 run lead after 6 innings with the score 7-2 before the Rangers scored 3 runs on 5 hits in the top of the 7th against Kutter Crawford and Brennan Bernardino before Chris Martin came on to stop the bleeding and record the final 2 outs. Jonathan Hernandez pitched a scoreless bottom of the 7th and we would head to the 8th inning with the Red Sox up 7-5. Martin retired the side in the top half of the 8th and Brock Burke pitched a scoreless bottom half to send the game to the 9th inning with Boston leading 7-5. Kenley Jansen retired Grossman and Seager for two quick outs and the Rangers were down to their final out. Nathaniel Lowe flew out to Yoshida in LF for the final out and Jansen records his 30th save as the Red Sox hang on for a 7-5 victory

                    GAME NOTES
                    * The Red Sox beat the Rangers 7-5 to win their first series in over 3 weeks

                    * The Red Sox seem to be getting back on track and improve to 54-34 while the Rangers fall to 50-38 on the season

                    * Kutter Crawford was coming off the best outing of his career where he struck out 14 Blue Jays in 8 shutout innings and turned in another solid performance pitching 6.1 innings allowing 4 runs on 10 hits with 6 Ks to earnt he win and improve to 3-2 with a 4.22 ERA on the season

                    * Nathan Eovaldi was facing his former team for the first time since signing a 2-year deal with Texas in free agency this past off-season and has been having a strong first season with the Rangers. Unfortunately Eovaldi did not have it tonight and he couldn't make it out of the 2nd inning as the Red Sox tagged him for 5 runs on 3 HR in 1.2 innings as he takes the loss falling to 7-6 and his ERA jumps up to 3.14

                    * Justin Turner finished a triple shy of the cycle going 3 for 5 with a single, double, HR & 2 RBI and Turner is now hitting .306 with 8 HR & 38 RBI on the season

                    * Masatake Yoshida went 3 for5 with double, HR & 2 RBI and Yoshida is now hitting .266 with 18 HR & 37 RBI

                    * Alex Verdugo went 2 for 5 wiith a double, HR & 1 RBI and Verdugo is now hitting .258 with 13 HR & 30 RBI

                    * Jonah Heim had a good night at the plate for Texas going 3 for 3 with a double & 2 RBI. Heim is now hitting .194 with 5 HR & 25 RBI on the season

                    * The Red Sox will be back in action tomorrow to begin the final series before the All-Star break as the Oakland A's come to Fenway Park for a 3 game series. The A's are having an abysmal season as they own the worst record in the American League at 30-59 on the season. James Paxton gets the start to open the series for Boston and he will be opposed by Ken Waldichuk for Oakland

                        TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
                        Game #89 of Season

                        Oakland Athletics (30-59) @ Boston Red Sox (54-34)
                        Pitching Matchup – Ken Waldichuk vs James Paxton

                        James Paxton and Ken Waldichuk were both pitching well as the game was scoreless through 4 innings. Paxton recorded 2 quick outs in the top of the 5th before paying the price for a couple pitches that he left up and over the plate as Nick Allen (410 feet) and Aldemys Diaz (414 feet) connected for back to back home runs giving the A's a 2-0 lead. The Red Sox got a RBI double from Jorge Alfaro in the bottom of the 5th sending the game to the 6th inning with Oakland leading 2-1. The score remained 2-1 until the bottom of the 7th where Waldichuk retired Arroyo to start the inning before leaving a changeup over the plate to Rob Refsnyder who hammered it 422 feet for a solo HR to CF tying the game at 2-2. Winckowski got Jordan Diaz to bounce into a 3-6-3 double play ending the top of the 9th while Alex Verdugo and Justin Turner hit back to back singles to put two men on with 1 out against Sam Moll in the bottom of the 8th. Moll came back with a huge K of Duvall bringing up Triston Casas with 2 outs and the go ahead run in scoring position at second base. Casas would hit a towering fly ball to LF that would have been a routine fly ball out anywhere besides Fenway Park but Casas get it just deep enough to bounce off the green monster on its way down for a RBI double giving Boston a 3-2 lead. Kenley Jansen was on to pitch the top of the 9th for Boston looking to close it out. Jansen struck out Ramon Laureano and Shea Langeliers would bounce one to Casas at first base for the 2nd out and the A's were down to their final out with Nick Allen stepping to the plate. Allen swung at the first pitch and hit a sinking liner to RF but Verdugo would get over to make the catch as the Red Sox win 3-2 to take the opener of this 3 game series

                            Garrett Whitlock and JP Sears were locked in a good pitchers duel as the game was scoreless until the bottom of the 5th when Connor Wong turned on an inside fastball from Sears and hit a solo HR into the monster seats in LF to give Boston a 1-0 lead. The A's answered in the top of the 6th when Whitlock left a changeup out over the plate to Seth Brown who crushed it 424 feet over the A's bullpen in RF for a solo HR tying the game 1-1. The Red Sox did some damage with 2 outs in the bottom of the 6th as a RBI single from Masataka Yoshida and RBI double from Christian Arroyo gave Boston a 3-1 lead. Whitlock finished off his afternoon with a scoreless top of the 7th and he was done after 95 pitches exiting with a 3-1 lead. Tayler Scott the first two batters in the bottom of the 7th before singles by Rob Refsnyder and Justin Turner put two on with 2 outs for Rafael Devers who absolutely crushed a slider from Scott 426 feet over the bullpen in RF to blow the game open 6-1. John Schreiber retired the A's in order in the top of the 8th and Masataka Yoshida added a solo HR off Freddy Tarnok in the bottom of the 8th making it 7-1. The A's came up to bat in the 9th against Brennan Bernardino who retired the side to finish off a 7-1 Red Sox win

                                TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
                                Game #91 of Season

                                Oakland Athletics (30-61) @ Boston Red Sox (56-34)
                                Pitching Matchup – Paul Blackburn vs Tanner Houck

                                The Red Sox opened the scoring against Paul Blackburn in the bottom of the 2nd when Rafael Devers drove a ball deep the opposite way and into the monster seats in LF for a solo HR and Yu Chang would come through with 2 outs punching a RBI single through the right side giving Boston a 2-0 lead. Tanner Houck was pitching well for Boston and Blackburn settled in for Oakland as the score remained 2-0 through 6 innings. Houck retired the side in the top of the 7th and Sam Moll took over on the mound pitching a scoreless frame for Oakland to send the game to the 8th inning with the Red Sox leading 2-0. Houck retired the first two batters in the top of the 8th before getting Shea Langeliers to ground out to Reyes at SS and Houck was through 8 shutout innings on the mound for Boston. Moll returned to the mound and pitched a 1-2-3 bottom of the 8th for Oakland sending the game to the 9th inning with the A's coming up to bat trailing 2-0 and Houck returning to the mound looking to finish off a complete game shutout. Nick Allen popped out to Casas in foul ground for the 1st out and Tony Kemp bounced back to the Houck who threw to first base for the 2nd out and the A's were down to their final out with Zack Gelof coming up looking to keep the game alive for Oakland. Houck would finish it off by getting Gelof to hit a bouncer to Devers at third base and he would fire a strong throw to Casas to get the speedy Gelof for the final out as the Red Sox win 2-0 and complete the sweep

                                GAME NOTES
                                * The Red Sox get a complete game shutout from Tanner Houck and win 2-0 to complete the 3 game sweep of the A's at Fenway Park

                                * The Red Sox head into the All-Star break with a 4 game winning streak as they improve to 57-34 while the Athletics fall to 30-62 on the season

                                * Tanner Houck pitched a gem as he throws a complete game shutout allowing just 4 hits over 9 dominant innings while striking out 8. Houck has been outstanding for Boston and is having a breakout season as he improves to 9-2 with a 2.08 ERA on the season

                                * Paul Blackburn pitched well for Oakland as he went 6 innings allowing 2 runs on 5 hits with 4 Ks but takes the loss falling to 5-10 with a 4.72 ERA on the season

                                * Rafael Devers hit a solo HR for Boston and is now hitting .333 with 32 HR & 67 RBI

                                * The Red Sox head into the All-Star break in 1st place in the AL East with a 57-34 record and 6.0 game lead over the 2nd place New York Yankees. The Red Sox will come return from the All-Star break with a 6 game road trip beginning with 3 games at Wrigley Field against the Chicago Cubs who are 44-46 on the season and in 3rd place in the NL Central although they sit just 2.0 games back of the 1st place St Louis Cardinals. Brayan Bello gets the start to open the series against Kyle Hendricks for Chicago

                                        TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
                                        Game #92 of Season

                                        Boston Red Sox (57-34) @ Chicago Cubs (44-46)
                                        Pitching Matchup – Brayan Bello vs Kyle Hendricks

                                        The Red Sox got a HR from Adam Duvall in the 2nd inning and added a run on a ground out by Alex Verdugo in the 4th to take a 2-0 lead. Brayan Bello was up over 100 pitches and recorded two outs in the top of the 6th before walking Tucker Barnhart. Josh WInckowski took over for Bello and would get Christopher Morel to ground out to Devers sending the game to the 7th inning with Boston leading 2-0. Michael Fulmer retired the Sox in the top of the 7th and Winckowski struck out Cody Bellinger looking to end the bottom of the 7th and send the game to the 8th with the Red Sox up 2-0. Anthony Kay pitched a 1-2-3 top of the 8th for Chicago and John Schreiber retired the side in a dominant bottom of the 8th recording back to back Ks of Dansby Swanson and Trey Mancini to send the game to the 9th inning with Boston up 2-0. Adbert Alzolay pitched a 1-2-3 top of the 9th and the Cubs would come to bat in the bottom of the 9th trailing 2-0 with Kenley Jansen coming on to try and close it out for Boston. Jansen struck out XXXX to begin the 9th before hitting Tucker Barnhart with a fastball that ran a little too far inside putting a man on base and bringing the tying run to the plate with 1 out. Jansen would go back to his cutter and get Christopher Morel to hit the ball hard on the ground to Turner at second base to start a game ending 4-6-3 double play and give the Red Sox a 2-0 win coming out of the All-Star break

                                        * The Red Sox extend their winning streak to 5 games and improve to 58-34 while the Cubs fall to 44-47 on the season

                                        * Brayan Bello was able to overcome control issues as he issued 5 walks but was able to keep the Cubs off the scoreboard pitching 5.2 shutout innings allowing 0 runs on 5 hits with 5 walks & 8 ks as he picks up the win improving to 6-5 with a 3.09 ERA

                                        * Kyle Hendricks pitched 6 solid innings allowing 2 runs on 8 htis with 3 Ks as he takes the loss falling to 5-10 with a 4.22 ERA on the season

                                        * Adam Duvall went 2 for 4 with a HR for Boston and is now hitting .286 with 8 HR & 26 RBI as he looks to have a strong second half of the season after missing a couple of months with a wrist injury that he suffered in the opening week of the season

                                        * The Red Sox bullpen was lights out as Josh Winckowski, John Schreiber and Kenley Jansen combined for 3.1 shutout innings of relief without allowing a hit and Jansen would record his 32nd save

                                        * The Red Sox and Cubs will play the 2nd game of this 3 game series tomorrow. James Paxton gets the start for Boston and he will be oppsed by Marcus Stroman for Chicago

                                            TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
                                            Game #93 of Season

                                            Boston Red Sox (58-34) @ Chicago Cubs (44-47)
                                            Pitching Matchup – James Paxton vs Marcus Stroman

                                            The Red Sox got a RBI single from Rafael Devers in the 1st inning and then Alex Verdugo and Devers would would each smack RBI double in the top of the 3rd to take a 3-0 lead. The Cubs loaded the bases in the bottom of the 3rd on 2 walks & a hit batter but Paxton would get Dansby Swanson to ground out to Devers at 3rd and Paxton was through 3 innings without allowing a hit as we would head to the 4th inning with Boston leading 3-0. Jarren Duran doubled to lead off the top of the 5th and Justin Turner knocked him in with a RBI doubled down the LF line making it 4-0. James Paxton struck out the side in the bottom of the 6th and was up to 10 Ks in the ball game. Drew Smyly was through 2.2 innings of scoreless relief for Chicago and Paxton finished his outing by striking out Mastroboni for his 11th K on his 121st pitch of the night sending the game to the 8th inning with the Red Sox leading 4-0. The Cubs put two men on against Richard Bleier with 1 out in the bottom of the 8th but Bleier would strikeout Christopher Morel and Chris Martin would come on and K Seiya Suzuki to end the threat and send the game to the 9th inning with Boston up 4-0. Julian Merryweather retired the side in the top of the 9th and the Martin would return to the mound for the top of the 9th with the Cubs coming to bat trailing 4-0. Martin struck out Mancini and got Bellinger to ground out to Reyes at SS and the Cubs were down to their final out with Yan Gomes coming up. Gomes grounded out to Devers who made the play and the Red Sox win 4-0

                                            GAME NOTES
                                            * The Red Sox beat the Cubs 4-0 behind another excellent pitching performance from James Paxton as the Red Sox have shut the Cubs out back to back days to take the first 2 games of this 3 game series

                                            * The Red Sox extend their winning streak to 6 games and improve to 59-34 while the Cubs drop to 44-48 on the season

                                            * James Paxton pitched 7 shutout innings holding the Cubs to 3 hits with 4 walks & 11 Ks as he improves to 7-1 with a 2.14 ERA and is looking like a lock for MLB comeback player of the year

                                            * The Red Sox activated lefty reliever Richard Bleier from the IL prior to todays game and sent lefty reliever Joely Rodriguez down to AAA Worcester

                                            * The Red Sox and Cubs will wrap up this 3 game series tomorrow with the Red Sox looking to complete the 3 game sweep. Boston will send Kutter Crawford to the mound in the series finale against Justin Steele who gets the start for Chicago

                                                TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
                                                Game #94 of Season

                                                Boston Red Sox (59-34) @ Chicago Cubs (44-48)
                                                Pitching Matchup – Kutter Crawford vs Justin Steele

                                                The Cubs opened the scoring in the bottom of the 2nd on a RBI single by Brennen Davis to give Chicago a 1-0 lead. The Cubs made it 2-0 on another RBI single from David in the bottom of the 4th inning and were looking to add to their lead when Ian Happ would come up with two runners in scoring position & 2 outs. Crawford ran a cut fastball in to Happ who cleaned it out driving it over the head of Refsnyder and off the wall in CF for a two run double extending the lead to 4-0.

                                                GAME NOTES
                                                * The Cubs pound out 13 hits on their way to a 6-3 victory over the Red Sox to avoid the sweep

                                                * The Red Sox loss ends their 6 game winning streak as they fall to 59-35 while the Cubs improve to 45-48 on the season

                                                * Kutter Crawford pitched just 4 innings allowing 4 runs (2 earned) on 9 hits with 5 Ks and takes the loss falling to 3-3 with a 4.24 ERA

                                                * Justin Steele pitched into the 9th innings and finished with a line of 8.0 innings pitched allowing 3 runs on 6 hits with 2 walks & 5 Ks as he earns the win to improve to 6-7 with a 4.89 ERA

                                                * Nico Hoerner went 1 for 5 with a HR and is now hitting .246 with 5 HR & 27 RBI while Seiya Suzuki went 2 for 4 with a HR and is now hitting .308 with 11 HR & 36 RBI

                                                * Ian Happ went 3 for 5 with a double & 2 RBI while Brennan Davis went 2 for 4 with 2 RBI for Chicago

                                                * The Red Sox will be back in action on the west coast tomorrow night as they begin a 3 game series with the Oakland A's at Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum. The Red Sox swept a 3 game series with the A's just over a week ago and will send Kutter Crawford to the mound in the opener against Paul Blackburn

                                                HIGHLIGHTS
                                                The highlight / video clip capturing was all screwed up and I was unable to edit clips....no highlights for this game

                                                    TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
                                                    Game #95 of Season

                                                    Boston Red Sox (59-35) @ Oakland Athletics (31-64)
                                                    Pitching Matchup – Garrett Whitlock vs Paul Blackburn

                                                    Paul Blackburn and Garrett Whitlock were both pitching well and the score was tied 1-1 after 6 innings. The Red Sox had two men in scoring position with no outs in the top of the 7th after a double by Reese McGuire and Yu Chang would deliver a RBI single to CF scoring a pair of runs to give Boston a 3-1 lead. The Sox were looking to blow the game open as they loaded the bases for Masataka Yoshida with 2 outs but he would go down looking as Richard Lovelady got a generous call on an inside fastball for the K to keep it a 3-1 game. Whitlock retired the side in the bottom of the 7th and had allowed just one hit in the ball game as we moved to the 8th inning with Boston leading 3-1. Sam Long pitched a scoreless top of the 8th for Oakland and Whitlock pitched another 1-2-3 frame in the bottom of the 8th sending the game to the 9th inning with the Red Sox up 3-1. Jarren Duran took Tayler Scott deep for a solo HR leading off the top of the 9th to make it 4-1 and Whitlock would return to the mound for the bottom of the 9th at 91 pitches on the night as he has allowed just one hit through his first 8 innings of work. Nick Allen flew out to Yoshida in LF and JJ Bleday grounded out to Casas at first base for two quick outs and the A's were down to their final out. Zack Gelof singled up the middle for just the 2nd Oakland hit of the night but Whitlock would finish off the complete game getting Seth Brown to bounce to Casas at first base for the final out and the Red Sox win 4-1

                                                    GAME NOTES
                                                    * The Red Sox get a gem from Garrett Whitlock and take the opener of this 3 game series 4-1

                                                    * The Red Sox get back on track and have won 7 of their last 8 game to improve to 60-35 while the A's fall to 31-65 on the season

                                                    * Garrett Whitlock pitched a complete game throwing 9 innings and allowing 1 run on just 2 hits with 1 walk & 9 Ks to improve to 5-1 with a 2.90 ERA on the season

                                                    * Paul Blackburn pitched 6 innings allowing 3 runs on 7 hits with 1 walk & 5 Ks and takes the loss falling to 5-11 with a 4.71 ERA on the season

                                                    * Jarren Duran went 1 for 5 with a solo HR and has been the biggest surprise of the season for Boston as he is now hitting .286 with 16 HR & 45 RBI

                                                    * The bottom of the Red Sox lineup provided most of the offense as Christian Arroyo went 3 for 4 with a RBI single, Reese McGuire went 1 for 4 with a double and Yu Chang went 2 for 4 with a single, double & 2 RBI

                                                    * The A's called up their #1 rated prospect as C/1B Tyler Soderstrom was in the lineup at DH and Soderstrom would go 0 for 3 in his MLB debut

                                                    * The Red Sox activated C Reese McGuire from the injured list and C Jorge Alfaro has been sent down to AAA Worcester to make room on the roster for McGuire.

                                                    * The Red Sox expect to add SS Trevor Story to the roster in a few days to make his 2023 season debut as he has looked good on his rehab assignment after recovering from off-season elbow surgery. Story will provide a big boost to the lineup as the Red Sox have gotten very little offensive production and mediocre defense from the shortstop position this season.

                                                    * The Red Sox acquired INF Luis Urias from the Milwaukee Brewers for single A pitcher Bradley Blalock. Urias is expected provide infield depth and will initially report to AAA Worcester

                                                    * Chris Sale has also begun a rehab assignment as he works his way back from a shoulder strain that has had him on the injured list since early June. The Red Sox are still figuring out what role they want Sale to pitch in when he returns as they are considering having him return to the starting rotation or potentially pitch out of the bullpen with the idea being to limit his innings and have him healthy for the post-season

                                                    * The Red Sox and A's will play the 2nd game of this 3 game series tomorrow night with Tanner Houck scheduled to pitch for Boston while Luis Medina is expected to get the start for Oakland

                                                        TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
                                                        Game #96 of Season

                                                        Boston Red Sox (60-35) @ Oakland Athletics (31-65)
                                                        Pitching Matchup – Tanner Houck vs Luis Medina

                                                        The Red Sox jumped all over Medina in the top of the 1st as Verdugo launched a solo HR and they would add two more runs on a RBI double from Duvall and RBI single from Casas as the Sox would send 9 men to the plate taking a 3-0 lead. Shea Langeliers got Oakland on the board with a RBI single in the bottom of the 2nd making it 3-1. The score remained 3-1 until the top of the 5th when Alex Verdugo hooked a ball inside the RF foul pole for a solo HR making it 4-1. Tanner Houck was over 100 pitches as he finished off the A's in the bottom of the 6th sending the game to the 7th inning with Boston leading 4-1. The Red Sox blew the game wide open in the top of the 7th when Adam Duvall launched a 3-run HR to CF extending the Sox lead to 7-1. Brennan Bernardino pitched scoreless frames in the 7th & 8th innings for Boston and we would go to the 9th inning with the Sox leading 7-1. Nick Pivetta came on to pitch the bottom of the 9th and JJ Bleday grounded to Turner with 1 out and 2 men on and Turner sailed a throw over Casas head allowing 2 runs to score making it 7-3. Pivetta came back and struck out Gelof and Kemp to end the game and the Red Sox win 7-3

                                                            TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
                                                            Game #97 of Season

                                                            Boston Red Sox (61-35) @ Oakland Athletics (31-65)
                                                            Pitching Matchup – Brayan Bello vs Ken Waldichuk

                                                            The A's jumped out to an early lead as Bello struggled with command and Oakland would take a 1-0 lead on a sac fly by Nick Allen in the bottom of the 2nd before a RBI double by Aldemys Diaz and a RBI single by Jordan Diaz in the 3rd to take 3-0 lead. Ken Waldichuk was cruising along until the Red Sox exploded for 5 runs on 4 RBI doubles by Justin Turner, Adam Duvall, Connor Wong and Luis Urias in the 4th inning to take a 5-3 lead. The score remained 5-3 until the top of the 7th when the Red Sox tacked on 4 more runs to blow the game open and take a 9-3 lead before Masataka Yoshida launched a 417 foot shot to RF for a 2-run HR making it 11-3. Chris Murphy pitched a scoreless 8th for Boston and Kenley Jansen came on with a 8 run lead to get some work in for the bottom of the 9th and had the A's down to their final out when Tony Kemp lined a two run RBI double in the gap to cut the deficit to 11-5. Jansen would K Soderstrom to end the game and finish off a 11-5 Red Sox victory
