Kutter Crawford started the game with 2 scoreless innings of work for Boston while Gerrit Cole took the mound for the Yankees making his first start of the season and recorded 5 Ks in his first 2 innings of work and the game was scoreless after 2 innings. New York put two men on with 2 outs in the top of the 3rd and Alex Verdugo lined a ball into LF for a single to load the bases for Gleyber Torres. Crawford would escape the jam as Torres flew out to Abreu in RF keeping the game scoreless. Cole was dealing on the mound for New York and recorded two more Ks in the bottom of the 3rd giving him 7 ks through his first 3 innings and we would move to the 4th with the score tied 0-0. The Yankees were threatening again as they put two men on with 1 out in the top of the 4th but Crawford would get Trent Grisham to bounce into a 6-4-3 inning ending double play to wiggle out of another jam. Cole recorded his 8th & 9th Ks in a 1-2-3 bottom of the 4th sending the game to the 5th inning tied 0-0. New York put two men on with 1 out again in the top of the 5th and this time Alex Verdugo delivered a RBI single to CF giving the Yankees a 1-0 lead. The Yankees would wind up with 5 straight hits as Gleyber Torres drove in a pair with a two run double and Anthony Rizzo followed with a RBI double of his own and the Yankees would take 4-0 lead. Austin Wells added a RBI double with 2 outs to make it 5-0 and knock Crawford out of the game as Brennan Bernardino came on to K Grisham bringing the top of the 5th to an end but not before the Yankees send 9 men to the plate and score 5 runs to take a 5-0 lead. Cole continued to dominate on the mound and picked up two more Ks bringing his total to 11 and we would head to the 6th with the Yankees leading 5-0. Cole struck out two more Red Sox in the bottom of the 6th and had 13 K's as the Yankees led 5-0 after 6 innings. Chase Anderson retired the side in the top of the 7th while Cole did not record any Ks in the bottom of the 7th but still retired the Sox in order to send the game to the 8th inning with New York leading 5-0. The Yankees loaded the bases against Anderson with 1 out in the top of the 8th for Juan Soto but Justin Slaten would replace Anderson on the mound for Boston and would need just one pitch to get Soto to ground into a 6-4-3 double play to keep the Red Sox somewhat in the ball game as they trail 5-0. Gerrit Cole was at 87 pitches as he returned to the mound for the bottom of the 8th and Boston would get a lead off single from Dominic Smith and a double from Enmanuel Valdez to put runners on 2nd & 3rd with nobody out. Reese McGuire grounded out to Torres and picked up a RBI as Smith scored to make it 5-1. Cole would strikeout Hamilton for his 14th K and Rafaela would hit the ball hard on a line but right at Torres who snared the line drive to end the 8th and send the game to the 9th inning with the Yankees leading 5-1. Slaten made quick work of the Yankees in the top of the 9th and the Red Sox would come to bat in the bottom of the 9th trailing 5-1. Aaron Boone would go with lefty Caleb Ferguson to begin the bottom of the 9th in a non save situation with the 4 run lead and Clay Holmes warming in the bullpen. Ferguson struck out Abreu and O'Neill for two quick outs to begin the bottom of the 9th and the Red Sox were down to their final out. Devers hit the ball hard to RF but Soto would make the catch for the final out and the Yankees take the finale of this 3 game series to avoid the sweep with a 5-1 victory

GAME NOTES
* The Yankees threatened in just about every inning before finally getting to Kutter Crawford as they exploded for 5 runs in the top of the 5th to take a 5-0 lead. Gerrit Cole was dominant in his first start of the season as he stuck out 14 Red Sox in 8 innings and the Yankees would go on to win 5-1 avoiding the sweep and slavaging a game in the series finale

* The Red Sox fall to 48-24 while the Yankees improve to 43-31 on the season and pull back within 6 games of the 1st place Red Sox

* The Yankees offense all came in the top of the 5th when they sent 9 batters to the plate and 4 different players would record a RBI as Gleyber Torres 2 (34), Alex Verdugo (29), Austin Wells (18) and Anthony Rizzo (36) all drove in runs

* The Red Sox bullpen was the lone bright spot in this game as Brennan Bernardino, Chase Anderson and Justin Slaten combined to pitch 4.1 shutout innings of relief

* Kutter Crawford flirted with danger all game and it eventually caught up with him as the Yankees exploded for 5 runs in the top of the 5th and knocked Crawford out of the game after 4.2 innings allowing 5 runs on 13 hits with 5 Ks as he takes the loss falling to 3-4 with a 4.15 ERA on the season

* Gerrit Cole missed the first 73 games of the Yankees season after going through a long rehab process to avoid Tommy John surgery and was making his 2024 season debut and Cole looked outstanding as he pitched 8 dominant innings allowing just 1 run on 4 hits while striking out 14 Red Sox to earn the win moving to 1-0 with a 1.13 ERA

* The Red Sox will travel to Canada where they will be in action tomorrow when they kick off a 6 game road trip with a 3 game series in Toronto with the Blue Jays at Rogers Centre. The Blue Jays have been a major disappointment this season as they sit in last place in the AL East with a record of 29-42 and are currently 19 games back of the 1st place Red Sox. Boston will have Josh Winckowski on the mound to open the series while Kevin Gausman gets the start for Toronto

The Blue Jays opened the scoring in the bottom of the 1st as Kevin Kiermaier led off with a double and Isiah Kiner-Falefa followed with a RBI single. Ceddanne Rafaela made a nice leaping catch to snare a line drive by Danny Jansen to end the inning and the Jays had a 1-0 lead after the 1st inning. The Red Sox answered with 2 outs in the top of the 2nd when Masataka Yoshida turned on a fastball from Kevin Gausman and lined an absolute missile into the RF stands for a solo HR tying the game 1-1. Gausman and Winckowski both settled in as the Red Sox had managed just 1 hit off Gausman through 5 innings while the Blue Jays had 4 hits off Winckowski and we would head to the 6th inning with the score tied 1-1. Ceddanne Rafaela singled in the top of the 6th and attempted to steal second base with 1 out but Jarren Duran hit a liner that would have been up the middle for a hit but Bo Bichette was covering the bag on the stolen base attempt and was positioned perfectly to make the catch and double off Rafaela to end the top of the 6th. Winckowski retired the side in order in the bottom of the 6th sending the game to the 7th inning with the score still tied 1-1. Gausman hit David Hamilton with a pitch leading off the top of the 7th and Hamilton would steal second base to move into scoring position with 1 out and Rafael Devers at the plate with the Red Sox looking to break the tie. Gausman would escape the jam as Devers hit a rocket to RF but it was hit right at Barger who made the catch and Wilyer Abreu would pop out to end the threat with the score remaining 1-1. Winckowski struck out the side in the bottom of the 7th as he froze Justin Turner looking and Daulton Varsho swinging for his 8th & 9th Ks before getting Spencer Horwitz for his 10th K to end the inning and send the game to the 8th inning with the score tied 1-1. Gausman was done for the evening as Genesis Cabrera came on to pitch the top of the 8th for Toronto and Connor Wong singled to put a man on base for Boston with 1 out. Romy Gonzalez would pinch hit for Dominic Smith and fly out to Kiermaier in CF for the 2nd out before Cabrera struck out Rafaela to end the frame keeping the score tied 1-1. Winckowski returned to the mound and Addison Barger led off the bottom of the 8th with a ground ball through the left side of the infield for a single and Kevin Kiermaier followed with a ground ball through the right side of the infield to put two men on with nobody out for the Blue Jays. Alex Cora came out of the Sox dugout to get Winckowski and Chris Martin would come in from the pen to take over on the mound for Boston. Martin left a sinker over the plate to Kiner-Falefa who drove it in the gap in left-center for a huge RBI double as 2 runs score giving Toronto a 3-1 lead. Danny Jansen would drop a soft liner into RF for a RBI single with 2 outs to add an insurance run making it 4-1. Martin would get Turner to fly out ending the inning and we would head to the 9th inning with the Red Sox coming up to bat trailing 4-1. Blue Jays closer Jordan Romano came on to pitch the top of the 9th looking to close it out and record the save. Romano would retire Duran on a fly ball to deep RF and Hamilton on a pop up to Jansen in foul ground and the Red Sox were quickly down to their final out. Tyler O'Neill hit the ball hard on the ground but right to Kiner-Falefa at third base who fielded it cleanly and made a strong throw across the diamond for the final out as the Blue Jays pickup a big win over the 1st place Red Sox 4-1

GAME NOTES
* The Red Sox and Blue Jays were tied 1-1 in the bottom of the 8th inning when the Jays struck for 3 runs to take a 4-1 lead and Jordan Romano would pitcha 1-2-3 top of the 9th to record the save giving Toronto a big win over the 1st place Red Sox in the opener of this 3 game series

* The Red Sox have lost 2 in a row to fall to 48-25 while the Blue Jays improve to 30-43 on the season. The Red Sox remain in 1st place in the AL East but the 2nd place Baltimore Orioles are now just 0.5 games back of the Red Sox

* Isiah Kiner-Falefa had a big night for Toronto going 2 for 3 with a double & 3 RBI and is hitting .266 on the season with 18 doubles & 19 RBI

* Masataka Yoshida provided the only offense for Boston with a solo HR in the 2nd inning. Yoshida is now hitting .238 with 6 HR & 15 RBI

* Josh Winckowski pitched well before the Blue Jays got to him in the bottom of the 8th. Wincjowski would finish with 7.0 innings pitched allowing 3 runs on 6 hits while striking out 10 and he would take the loss falling to 3-3 with a 2.62 ERA

* Kevin Gausman was excellent for Toronto as he held the Red Sox to just 2 hits over 7.0 innings allowing 1 run and recording 7 Ks but did not factor in the decision

* The Red Sox and Blue Jays will play the 2nd game of this 3 game series tomorrow and Boston will send Nick Pivetta to the mound while Yusei Kikuchi the start for Toronto

The Red Sox jumped out to an early lead when Tyler O'Neill belted a 2-run HR to LF off Yusei Kikuchi in the top of the 1st and Nick Pivetta was sharp early as he cruised through the first 3 innings without allowing a hit and we would head to the 4th inning with Boston leading 2-0. The Red Sox doubled their lead in the top of the 4th when Kikuchi hung a slider up and in to Romy Gonzalez who launched a 406 shot into the second deck down the LF line making it 4-0. Vladimir Guerrero singled for the first Blue Jay hit of the night with 1 out in the bottom of the 4th but Pivetta would retire the next two batters to send the game to the 5th inning with Boston leading 4-0. The Red Sox blew the game open in the top of the 5th as Kikuchi hit Rafaela with a pitch to start the inning and was replaced by Bowden Francis. Rafaela came in to score on a RBI sac fly from O'Neill and Rafael Devers would launch a 2-run HR down the RF line to open up a 7-0 lead for Boston. The Red Sox added a run in the top of the 7th on a double play ball from Refsnyder and Rafael Devers would hit his 2nd HR of the night in the top of the 8th to make it 9-0. Nick Pivetta took a one-hitter into the bottom of the 8th and retired Springer for the 1st out before Daulton Varsho doubled off the wall in right-center and Leo Jimenez followed with his first MLB HR to cut the deficit to 9-2. Trevor Richards retired the side in the top of the 9th and the Blue Jays would come to bat in the bottom of the 9th trailing by 7 runs as Bailey Horn made his way in to pitch the bottom of the 9th for Boston with a 9-2 lead. Horn would quickly retire Schneider and Guerrero and the Jays were down to their final out. Horn would strikeout Danny Jansen to end the game and the Red Sox win 9-2 to even the series at one game each setting up a rubber match for tomorrow in the series finale

Alek Manoah pitched a scoreless top of the 1st and the Blue Jays were threatening in the bottom of the 1st when George Springer dropped a fly ball into RF in front of the diving attempt by Abreu and the ball would roll all the way to the wall with Springer winding up at third base with a triple with 1 out. Tanner Houck would strand Springer at third though as he struck out Bo Bichette and retired Vladimir Guerrero on a ground ball to escape the jam and we were scoreless after 1 inning. Toronto would open the scoring in the bottom of the 2nd when Daulton Varsho doubled and Alejandro Kirk followed with a RBI single to RF giving the Blue Jays a 1-0 lead. The score remained 1-0 through 4 innings and Wilyer Abreu led off the top of the 5th by battling to a full count against Manoah who threw a sinker that stayed up and over the plate and Abreu crushed it 414 feet for a solo HR to CF tying the game 1-1. The Blue Jays were threatening in the bottom of the 5th after singles by Ernie Clement and Isiah Kiner-Falefa put two men on with 1 out but Houck would get George Springer ground into an inning ending 6-4-3 double play sending the game to the 6th inning with the score even at 1-1. Manoah pitched a 1-2-3 top of the 6th for Toronto and the Jays would threaten again in the bottom of the 6th after back to back ground balls found holes for a pair of singles by Bichette and Guerrero putting two men on with nobody out. Houck ran a sinker in on the hands of Justin Turner but he was able to clean it out and make it 3 straight hits as he dropped a soft liner into LF for a RBI single giving Toronto a 2-1 lead. Houck came back with a K of Varsho for a huge 1st out and then got Kirk to hit into what should have been an inning ending 3-6-3 double play but Dominic Smith throw to second base pulled Rafaela off the bag and everyone was safe of the throwing error to load the bases with 1 out. The error by Smith would prove costly as Spender Horwitz was up next and he knocked in Guerrero with a RBI sac fly to RF making it 3-1. Houck was able to limit the damage and retired Clement to end the inning and send the game to the 7th with the Blue Jays leading 3-1. The Red Sox got a single from Masataka Yoshida and Wilyer Abreu would draw a walk to put two men on with 1 out in the top of the 7th and that would be all for Manoah as Genesis Cabrera made his way in from the pen to take over on the mound for Toronto. Cabrera would knock down a come backer up the middle off that bat of Smith and was able to get Smith at first base as Yoshida & Abreu advanced on the play. Connor Wong would come on to pinch hit for Reese McGuire with 2 outs and runners on 2nd & 3rd and Wong would foul off some tough pitches with 2 strikes before driving ball deep towards right-center but Varsho would run it down and make the catch as the Sox strand a pair and the score remained 3-1. The Jays would tack on two more runs against Justin Slaten in the bottom of the 7th sending the game to the 8th inning with Toronto now leading 5-1. Yimi Garcia came on to pitch for Toronto and the Red Sox bats showed signs of life as Ceddanne Rafaela ripped a liner into LF for a 1 out single and David Hamilton followed with a rocket into the RF corners for a RBI double as Rafaela scored all the way from first making it 5-2. Garcia would somehow escape the inning despite a pair of rockets off the bats of O'Neill and Devers that were hit right at Varsho and Horwitz and the Blue Jays had a 5-2 lead. Brennan Bernardino retired the Blue Jays in order in the bottom of the 8th sending the game to the 9th inning with the Blue Jays leading 5-2. Jordan Romano came on to pitch looking to secure the series win for Toronto and record his 12th save of the season. Romano would retire Yoshida on a fly ball to RF and then struck out Abreu and the Red Sox were quickly down to their final out. Dominic Smith hit a ground ball up the middle but Horwitz would get to it and make the play for the final out and the Blue Jays win 5-2

Re: TNK MLB 24 SLIDERS

TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
Game #76 of Season

Boston Red Sox (49-26) @ Cincinnati Reds (33-42)
Pitching Matchup – Brayan Bello (5-3, 2.20 ERA) vs Frankie Montas (0-5, 4.00 ERA)

The Red Sox scored a pair of runs on 3 hits against Frankie Montas in the top of the 1st with Rafael Devers and Connor Wong picking up a RBI for a Boston as they take an early 2-0 lead. Brayan Bello cruised through the bottom of the 1st and the Red Sox would add another run in the top of the 2nd when Wilyer Abreu reached on a throwing error by Elly De La Cruz and came in on a RBI sac fly by Ceddanne Rafaela making it 3-0. Cincinnati put runners on 2nd & 3rd with 1 out in the bottom of the 2nd but Bello would come back with a pair of Ks to get out of the jam as he struck out Will Brennan and Jake Fraley both looking to send the game to the 3rd inning with Boston leading 3-0. The Red Sox continued to pad the lead as Tyler O'Neill hooked a solo HR down the LF line with 1 out in the top of the 3rd making it 4-0 before Rafael Devers doubled off the wall in LF and came in to score on a RBI single by Masataka Yoshida extending the lead to 5-0. Bello recorded his 6th K in a scoreless bottom of the 3rd and we would head to the 4th inning with the Red Sox up 5-0. Bello recorded 2 more Ks in the bottom of the 5th bringing his total to 8 Ks on the night and we would head to the 6th inning with the Red Sox leading 5-0. Bello pitched a 1-2-3 bottom of the 6th and struck out Elly De La Cruz for his 9th K sending the game to the 7th inning with Boston leading 5-0. Ceddanne Rafaela took Buck Farmer deep for a 420 foot solo HR to CF in the top of the 7th to push the Sox lead to 6-0. Bello continued to dominate on the mound as he struck out Jeimer Candelario leading off the bottom of the 7th for his 10th K of the game and pitched another 1-2-3 inning sending the game to the 8th inning with Boston leading 6-0. Masataka Yoshida launched a 2-run HR to RF off Farmer in the top of the 8th to make it 8-0. Bello returned to the mound for the bottom of the 8th at 80 pitches on the night and began the inning by striking out Benson looking for his 11th K and finished another 1-2-3 inning by striking out Friedl for his 12th K of the night. Bello returned to the mound for the bottom of the 9th at 90 pitches looking to finish off the complete game shutout and retired Jonathan India on a ground out for the 1st out then struck out De La Cruz looking at a filthy slider that broke right over the outside corner for K #13 of the ball game for Bello and the Reds were down to their final out. Spencer Steer would fly out to Abreu in RF and Bello gets the complete game shutout as the Red Sox cruise to a 8-0 victory to open the series

GAME NOTES
* The Red Sox get a dominant 13 K performance from Brayan Bello and the offense puts up 8 runs on 11 hits as the Red Sox take the opener of this 3 game series at Cincinnati 8-0

* The Red Sox improve to 50-26 while the Reds fall to 33-43 on the season

* The Red Sox hit 3 home runs in the ball game as Tyler O'Neill (19), Masataka Yoshida (7) and Ceddanne Rafaela (8) all went deep for Boston in the ball game

* Rafael Devers went 3 for 4 with 2 doubles & 1 RBI and is now hitting .302 with 35 HR & 69 RBI as he continues to have a MVP caliber season

* Brayan Bello was excellent for Boston as he pitched a complete game shutout for Boston with 13 Ks in the ball game earning the win to improve to 6-3 with a 2.03 ERA on the season. Bello has been lights out since getting knocked around by the Atlanta Braves back on May 7th and has made 8 starts since then going 4-1 with a 1.18 ERA allowing just 8 runs on 39 hits with 66 Ks over 61 innings pitched in those 8 starts

* Frankie Montas pit hed 4.1 innings allowing 5 runs on 7 hits with 1 K as he takes the loss and falls to 0-6 with a 4.20 ERA on the season

* The Red Sox and Reds will play the 2nd game of this 3 game inter-league series tomorrow with Kutter Crawford on the mound for Boston while Hunter Greene takes the mound for Cincinnati

** Brayan Bello K-Reel (13 Ks)

Re: TNK MLB 24 SLIDERS

TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
Game #77 of Season

Boston Red Sox (50-26) @ Cincinnati Reds (33-43)
Pitching Matchup – Kutter Crawford (3-4, 4.15 ERA) vs Hunter Greene (6-6, 3.74 ERA)

The game was scoreless after 2 innings as Kutter Crawford picked up where Brayan Bello (13 Ks & complete game shutout last night) left off and struck out 5 batters in his first 2 innings of work while Hunter Greene was sharp early for Cincinnati. The Red Sox opened the scoring in the top of the 3rd when Ceddanne Rafaela led off with a solo HR to right-center and Rafael Devers would add a 2-out RBI single to give Boston a 2-0 lead. The Reds put two men on base to begin the bottom of the 3rd and Crawford would record his 6th K as he froze Jonathan India with a curveball fir the 1st out. Elly De La Cruz would follow with a liner into RF for a RBI single making it a 2-1 ballgame before Spencer Steer tied it 2-2 with a RBI single and Jeimer Candelario made it 3 straight RBI singles with a soft liner to LF giving Cincinnati a 3-2 lead. Crawford would settle down after a mound visit and came back to strikeout Tyler Stephenson and Noelvi Marte giving him 8 Ks through 3 innings of work and we would head to the 4th inning with the Reds leading 3-2. The Red Sox answered right back as Wilyer Abreu jumped the first pitch from Greene in the top of the 4th and launched it 406 feet into the RF stands tying the game 3-3. The up and down outing continued for Crawford in the bottom of the 4th as he recorded his 9th & 10th K but the Reds would push across two more runs with Jake Fraley and Spencer Steer picking up RBIs to give the Reds a 5-3 and knock Crawford out of the game as Justin Slaten came on to pitch for the Red Sox with 2 outs and he would strikeout Will Benson to end the inning and send the game to the 5th with Cincinnati leading 5-3. Greene retired the side in the top of the 5th and the Reds would add a run in the bottom of the 5th on a RBI double by Friedl into the RF corner that scored Benson but Fraley was thrown out at the plate to end the inning and we would head to the 6th with Cincinnati leading 6-3. The Red Sox would put two men on in the top of the 6th and Ceddanne Rafaela would draw a walk after an excellent at bat to load the bases with 2 outs and that would be all for Greene as Brent Suter came in from the Reds bullpen to face Jarren Duran in a huge spot with the bases loaded and 2 outs. Suter would get Duran to ground out to India at second base to end the frame as Boston strands the bases loaded and the score remains 6-3. Slaten would record two more Ks in a scoreless bottom of the 6th and Red Sox pitching has recorded 14 of the 18 Cincinnati outs in this game by strikeout as we head to the 7th inning with the Reds leading 6-3. Tyler O'Neill came up with 1 out in the top of the 7th and jumped a first pitch fastball from Suter and absolutely crushed it 441 feet to straight away CF for a solo HR cutting the deficit to 6-4. Rafael Devers followed with a double in the gap but Lucas Sims would come on and retire Abreu to end the top of the 7th with the Reds up 6-4. Zack Kelly took over on the mound for Boston and pitched a 1-2-3 bottom of the 7th sending the game to the 8th inning with Cincinnati leading 6-4. The Red Sox continued to chip away at the lead in the top of the 8th when Lucas Sims left a fastball up over the plate and Reese McGuire turned on it and launched a 413 foot solo HR down the RF line cutting the deficit to 6-5 with 1 out. Sims came back with a big K of Rafaela for the 2nd out and Sam Moll would come in from the pen to face Jarren Duran who would hit a deep drive to CF but it would die and Friedl would make the catch on the warning track to end the top of the 8th with the Reds leading 6-5. Zack Kelly retired the Reds in order in the bottom of the 8th sending the game to the 9th with Cincinnati leading 6-5. Alexis Diaz came on to pitch looking to record the save and close it out for the Reds with Hamilton, O'Neill and Devers due up for Boston in the top of the 9th. David Hamilton just missed hitting a game tying HR leading off the 9th as he hit a ball deep to right-center and Friedl got back and made the catch right at the wall for the 1st out. Diaz struck out Tyler O'Neill on a nasty slider away and the Red Sox were down to their final out with Rafael Devers who was 3 for 4 in the game coming to the plate. Devers would hit the ball on the ground to Steer at first base who made the play and stepped on the bag to end the game as Diaz records his 22nd save and the Reds win 6-5

The Reds jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the 1st when Spencer Steer knocked in India and De La Cruz with a RBI single up the middle. Andrew Abbott was of to a good start on the mound for Cincinnati and they would add a run when TJ Friedl took Winckowski deep leading off the bottom of the 3rd with a solo HR to RF and we would head to the 4th inning with the Reds leading 3-0. The score remained 3-0 as Abbott continued to keep the Red Sox hitters off balance in the top of the 4th & 5th innings and the Reds would add to the lead with 2 outs in the bottom of the 5th when Jonathan India lined a ball opposite field into the RF corner for a RBI double and we would move to the 6th inning with Cincinnati up 4-0. The Red Sox finally got to Abbott in the top of the 6th as David Hamilton led off with a liner to CF for a single and he would score all the way from first as Ceddanne Rafaela followed with a line drive into the RF corner for a RBI double cutting the deficit to 4-1 with nobody out and Rafaela in scoring position. Rafaela scored on a RBI double with 1 out by Rob Refsnyder making it 4-2 but Abbott would avoid the big inning as he got Tyler O'Neill to ground out and Rafael Devers to fly out to Friedl in deep CF stranding Refsnyder in scoring position as Abbott limits the damage and the Reds lead has been cut in half 4-2. Winckowski retired the first two batters in the bottom of the 6th before a double by Tyler Stephenson put a man in scoring position with 2 outs and that would be all for Winckowski as Brennan Bernardino came in to take over on the mound for Boston. Noelvi Marte jumped on the first pitch from Bernardino and lined it into the gap for a RBI double making it 5-2. Abbott struck out Hamilton to end a scoreless top of the 7th while Bernardino retired Fraley and Friedl to begin the bottom of the 7th before Greg Weissert came on and struck out India looking to end the inning on a 97 mph fastball at the letters sending the game to the 8th inning with Cincinnati holding a 5-2 lead. Emilio Pagan came on to pitch the top of the 8th for the Reds and retired Rafaela and Duran for two quick outs before Refsnyder hit his 2nd double of the ball game bringing up O'Neill with 2 outs and Devers lurking in the on deck circle. O'Neill smoked a liner towards the gap in left-center but Friedl would get over and make a nice catch on the run to end the top of the 8th with the Reds leading 5-2. Weissert returned to the mound and pitched a 1-2-3 bottom of the 8th sending the game to the 9th inning with Alexis Diaz coming on to pitch the top of the 9th for Cincinnati looking to close the game out and record the save. Devers led off the top of the 9th for Boston with a ground ball up the middle for a single but Diaz came back with a big strikeout of Connor Wong for the 1st out. Masataka Yoshida was up next and drove a ball into the gap in left-center for a RBI double as Devers scores all the way from first base cutting the Reds lead to 5-3 with 1 out and the Red Sox would bring the potential tying run to the plate. Wilyer Abreu came out of the dugout to pinch hit for Romy Gonzalez but would fly out to Friedl in CF and the Red Sox were down to their final out. David Hamilton would keep the game going as he lined a ball into CF for a RBI single as Yoshida scores to make it a one run game cutting the deficit to 5-4 with 2 outs and bringing Ceddanne Rafaela to the plate with the tying run on base. Rafaela has had a very good series as he was 4 for 9 with a double, 2 HR & 3 RBI in the series. Rafaela would not wind up getting a chance to be the hero as Hamilton took his lead off first base and Diaz made a quick move to pick him off ending the game in heartbreaking fashion for the Red Sox as the Reds hang on to defeat the Red Sox 5-4 and take the series

GAME NOTES
* The Red Sox trailed 5-2 entering the 9th inning and had a good rally going as they cut the deficit to 5-4 with Ceddanne Rafaela coming to the plate with the tying run on base but Alexis Diaz would pick off David Hamilton at first base to end the game and the Reds win 5-4 and take 2 out of 3 from the Red Sox

* The Red Sox fall to 50-28 while the Reds improve to 35-43 on the season

* The Red Sox are in a bit of a slump of late as they have lost 5 of their last 7 games and 6-8 in their last 14 games as they find themselves no longer in sole possession of 1st place as the Baltimore Orioles are now tied with the Red Sox for 1st place in the AL East with matching 50-28 records

* Rob Refsnyder went 2 for 4 with 2 doubles & 1 RBI and Refsnyder continues to produce whenever he is in the lineup and is now hitting .355 on the season. Ceddanne Rafaela went 2 for 4 with a double & 1 RBI to lead the Red Sox offensively. Rafaela had a good series for Boston as he went 4 for 10 with a double, 2 HR & 3 RBI in the 3 game series

* The Reds were led by TJ Friedl who went 1 for 4 with a HR & 1 RBI and is now hitting .251 with 9 HR & 25 RBI and Friedl also made a number of nice plays in CF for Cincinnati in the series. Tyler Stephenson went 2 for 3 with a pair of doubles while Spencer Steer drove in a pair of runs with a RBI single in the 1st inning and now has 37 RBI on the season

* Josh Winckowski pithed 5.2 innings allowing 5 runs on 7 hits with 1 walk & 5 Ks taking the loss to fall to 3-4 with a 3.38 ERA

* Andrew Abbott was very good for Cincinnati as he pitched 7 strong innings allowing 2 runs on 5 hits with 4 Ks as he earns the win to improve to 5-6 with a 3.88 ERA on the season

* The Red Sox return home where they will be back in action tomorrow when they open a 3 game series at Fenway Park with the Toronto Blue Jays who are in last place in the AL East sitting 18 games back of Boston but the Jays took 2 out of 3 from the Sox last week in Toronto. Nick Pivetta takes the mound to open the series for Boston while Yusei Kikuchi gets the start for Toronto

The game was scoreless after two innings as Nick Pivetta and Yusei Kikuchi were both off to solid starts on the mound and we would head to the 3rd inning tied 0-0. Pivetta retired Kevin Kiermaier and George Springer to begin the top of the 3rd before some two out magic from the Blue Jays as Spencer Horwitz doubled and Vladimir Guerrero was hit by a pitch putting two men on. Justin Turner was up next and he would hit a ground ball up the middle for a RBI single giving Toronto a 1-0 lead. Pivetta was up to 9 Ks through 5 innings and Kikuchi had held the Red Sox to just 1 hit through his first 5 innings of work and the game would move to the 6th inning with the Blue Jays leading 1-0. Pivetta retired the Jays in order in the top of the 6th and Ceddanne Rafaela ripped a rocket through the left side into LF for a single on just the 2nd Red Sox hit of the game leading off the bottom of the 6th. Jarren Duran followed with a bloop single to LF putting runners on 1st & 2nd with a lot of speed on the bases with nobody out for Boston who was threatening for this first time in the ballgame. Rob Refsnyder followed with an excellent at bat as he just missed hitting a 3-run HR as the ball hooked foul on a deep drive down the LF line and he would foul off a few tough pitches with two strikes before staying on a slider from Kikuchi and driving it in the gap in right-center for a big RBI double as Duran and Rafaela both come around to score giving the Red Sox a 2-1 lead. Kikchi settled down and came right back to retire the next three hitters and strand Refsnyder at second base avoiding the big inning and send the game to the 7th inning with Boston leading 2-1. Daulton Varsho led off the top of the 7th with a single before stealing second base and advancing to third base on a deep sac fly to RF by Jansen putting the tying run on thirds base with 1 out. Pivetta ran a fastball in to Ernie Clement who squared to bunt and was hit by the pitch taking first base to put runners on the corners with 1 out for Kevin Kiermaier. Zack Kelly came in from the Red Sox bullpen to face Kiermaier in a huge spot and Kiermaier hit a high chopper to second base and Gonzalez had no play as everyone was safe and Varsho scored to tie the game 2-2. Springer followed with a liner to LF and the Blue Jays now have the bases loaded with 1 out. Kelly came back with a huge K as he froze Spencer Horwitz with a fastball at the top of the zone for the 2nd out bringing up Guerrero who swung at the first pitch hitting a bouncer to Dalbec at first base and he would step on the bag to end the inning as Kelly gets out of the jam and the score is tied 2-2. Kikuchi pitched a scoreless bottom of the 7th sending the game to the 8th inning with the score tied 2-2. Kelly retired the first two batters in the top of the 8th before Varsho singled with 2 outs but was thrown out by Wong trying to steal second base to end the frame. Yimi Garcia came and pitched a 1-2-3 bottom of the 8th for Toronto and we would go to the 9th inning tied at 2-2. Kelly remained in the game for Boston and retired the side in order striking out Kiermaier looking to end the top of the 9th and the Red Sox would come to bat in the bottom of the 9th with a chance to walk off with a victory against Zach Pop who was on to pitch for Toronto. Pop retired Devers on a ground out before Connor Wong singled to CF putting the winning run on base with 1 out. Masataka Yoshida followed with a single up the middle putting two men on and Boston had the winning run in scoring position with 1 out. Dominic Smith emerged from the dugout to pinch hit for Romy Gonzalez and Pop would pick off Wong at second base for a huge out on a bad play on the bases by the Red Sox. Smith would strikeout and the game would head to extra innings with the score tied 2-2. The teams would begin every frame in extra innings with a runner on second base and the Jays would have runners on 1st & 2nd with nobody out after Rafaela bobbled a ground ball from Springer and was charged with an error. Chris Martin came right back with a huge K of Horwitz and then got Guerrero to ground into a 4-6-3 double play as the Blue Jays fail to score in the top of the 10th. David Hamilton started the bottom of the 10th on second base after he came in on defense for Smith who pinch-hit in the 9th inning. Pop would get two quick strikes on Bobby Dalbec and would try to put him away with a slider low and away but Dalbec was able to go down and get it ripping it past the dive of Clement down the third base line for a base hit and Hamilton would race home with the winning run to give the Red Sox a 3-2 extra innings victory

GAME NOTES
* The Red Sox and Blue Jays were tied 2-2 after 9 innings and we would go to extra innings where the Blue Jays failed to score in the top of the 10th and the Red Sox would win it in the bottom of the 10th when Bobby Dalbec led off with a single down the 3rd base line and David Hamilton who was on second base to start the inning raced home with the winning run as Boston takes the opener of this series 3-2

* The Red Sox improve to 51-28 while the Blue Jays fall to 32-47 on the season

* Rob Refsnyder went 1 for 4 with 2 RBI as he continues to produce when in the Red Sox lineup and is now hitting .351 with 1 HR & 14 RBI on the season. Refsnyder has been murdering left-handed pitching and is hitting .431 vs left-handers this season

* Bobby Dalbec was called up before the game to give the Red Sox another RH bat against lefties and Dalbec would go 2 for 3 in his return to the major league roster and delivered the game winning walk off RBI single in the 10th inning

* Justin Turner (34) and Kevin Kiermaier (24) each recorded a RBI for Toronto in the loss

* Nick Pivetta pitched 6.1 innings allowing 2 runs on 6 hits with 9 striekouts and did not factor in the decision

* Yusei Kikuchi pitched 7 strong innings allowing 2 runs on 5 hits with 1 walk & 4 Ks earning a no decision

* The Red Sox have called up 1B/3B Bobby Dalbec from AAA Worcester and have sent 2B Enmanuel Valdez down to AAA Worcester to make room on the major league roster for Dalbec. Valdez had recently lost the starting second base job to David Hamilton and Dalbec will give them another right-handed bat off the bench

* The Red Sox and Blue Jays will play the 2nd game of this 3 game series at Fenway Park tomorrow with Tanner Houck on the mound for Boston while Yariel Rodriguez will be making his Blue Jays debut after signing with the Jays following a stint in Japan

Re: TNK MLB 24 SLIDERS

TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
Game #80 of Season
Toronto Blue Jays (32-47) @ Boston Red Sox (51-28)
Pitching Matchup – Yariel Rodriguez (0-0, 0.00 ERA) vs Tanner Houck (7-6, 4.85 ERA)

The Red Sox and Blue Jays were scoreless after 2 innings and we would head to the 3rd inning tied 0-0. Tanner Houck would record his 3rd & 4th Ks in a scoreless top of the 3rd and the Sox bats would come alive in the bottom of the 3rd as Reese McGuire led off by turning on a 98 mph fastball from Rodriguez and launching a solo HR to RF. Ceddanne Rafaela followed with a single, stole second base and came in to score on a RBI double by Jarren Duran making it 2-0. Houck worked a pair of scoreless frames in the top of the 4th & 5th inning and the Red Sox were threatening to blow the game open in the bottom of the 5th when they loaded the bases with 2 outs for Rafael Devers. Rodriguez would get out of the inning though as he struck out Devers on a 98 mph fastball to escape the jam and send the game to the 6th inning with Boston leading 2-0. Houck was through 6 after a 1-2-3 top of the 6th and Boston put two men on with 1 out in the bottom of the 6th before Rodriguez got Reese McGuire to ground into a 3-6-1 inning ending double play and we would head to the 7th inning with the score still 2-0. Houck recorded two quick outs before a pair of bloop singles by Jansen and Clement put two on with 2 outs in the top of the 7th. Kiermaier did a great job with two strikes as he stayed on a sinker away and lined it into LF for a single but Rob Refsnyder came up firing and made a strong throw to the plate to nail Jansen trying to score for the 3rd out ending the top of the 7th with the 2-0 lead intact for Boston. Genesis Cabrera came on to pitch the bottom of the 7th and retired the side in order sending the game to the 8th inning with the Red Sox leading 2-0. Houck was at 95 pitches as he returned to the mound to begin the top of the 8th and retired Springer and Horwitz on routine ground balls for two quick outs. Vlad Guerrero lined a single to LF to put a man on with 2 outs but Houck would remain in after a mound visit and finished a fantastic outing by getting Justin Turner to bounce to Devers at third base for the 3rd out and Houck pitches 8 shutout innings and the Red Sox lead remained 2-0. Devers singled and Yoshida drew a walk to put two on with 1 out in the bottom of the 8th and Trevor Richards would make his way in to replace Cabrera on the mound for Toronto. The Red Sox failed to add an insurance run though as Richards got Wilyer Abreu to ground into a double play to end the threat and send the game to the 9th inning with the Red Sox holding a 2-0 lead and Kenley Jansen coming on to try and close it out for Boston. The Jays came up to bat trailing 2-0 in the top of the 9th with Bichette, Varsho and Jansen due up. Bichette would fly out to Abreu in RF for the 1st out and Varsho hit a rocket to Cf but it was hit right at Duran who made the catch and the Blue Jays were down to their final out. Kenley Jansen would get Danny Jansen to ground out to Devers

The Blue Jays got off to a good start against Brayan Bello as Kevin Kiermaier led off the game with a double down the RF line and Bo Bichette would knock him in with a RBI single to give the Jays a 1-0 lead before Bello got Vladimir Guerrero to ground into an inning ending double play. Toronto would take advantage of a throwing error by Dalbec in the top of the 3rd and the Jays had a couple hits that were not hit hard but found holes and Bo Bichette picked up his 2nd RBI on a RBI single and Vladimir Guerrero would line a RBI double to left-center making it 3-0. The Red Sox would get on the board against Jose Berrios in the bottom of the 3rd as Jarren Duran singled, stole second base and came in to score when David Hamilton lined a RBI single into CF. Hamilton stole second base to move into scoring position with 1 out and Rafael Devers ripped a two out RBI single down the first base line to cut the deficit to 3-2. Toronto put men on base in the top of the 4th & 5th innings but Bello would manage to get out of each frame with no damage and David Hamilton would single with 2 outs in the bottom of the 5th and steal his second base of the night to move into scoring position. Tyler O'Neill dropped a soft liner into RF for a RBI single as Hamilton scores tying the game 3-3. Berrios would retire Devers on a ground ball to Horwitz ending the 5th inning and we would move to the 6th inning with the score now tied 3-3. Bello picked up two more Ks bringing his total to 7 in a 1-2-3 top of the 6th while Berrios retired Wong & Abreu to begin the bottom of the 6th before a ground rule double by Bobby Dalbec to put a runner in scoring position with 2 outs. Dominic Smith followed by ripping a line drive into RF for a RBI single giving the Red Sox a 4-3 lead. Romy Gonzalez dropped a single into RF putting two men on and Genesis Cabrera would come on to replace Berrios with two on & two outs. Jarren Duran was looking for his 3rd hit of the night and smoke a line drive but it was hit right at Horwitz who made the grab to end the inning and send the game to the 7th inning with Boston leading 4-3. The Blue Jays were threatening in the top of the 7th as Ernie Clement led off with a bloop single and Kevin Kiermaier followed with a liner to left-center for a double putting runners on 2nd & 3rd with nobody out and that would be all for Bello as he exits and Justin Slaten would come in to a tough spot with two runners in scoring position and nobody out with George Springer, Bo Bichette and Vladimir Guerrero coming up. Slaten recorded a huge K of Springer for the 1st out and thought he had Bichette rung up looking twice but was squeezed by the home plate umpire keeping Bichette alive and he would take advantage as he dropped a blooper in down the LF line for a RBI single scoring Clement & Kiermaier to give Toronto a 5-4 lead. Slaten would come back and get Guerrero to ground into a 6-4-3 double play ending the top of the 7th but the Blue Jays now had a 5-4 lead. Yimi Garcia was on to pitch for Toronto and Tyler O'Neill doubled to put the tying run in scoring position with 1 out. Devers flew out to Springer in deep RF and O'Neill would tag and advance to third base. Connor Wong drove a ball the opposite way to RF that looked like it may get down for extra bases but Springer would make a nice running catch to end the inning and we would move to the 8th inning with the Blue Jays leading 5-4. Slaten and Brennan Bernardino combined to pitch a scoreless top of the 8th for Boston and Chad Green was coming on to pitch the bottom of the 8th for Toronto. Wilyer Abreu battled to a full count before shooting a ball up the middle for a lead off single but Bo Bichette would make a great play ranging to his right to get to a ball in the hole off the bat of Dalbec to start a huge 6-4-3 double play. Dominic Smith came up with 2 outs and jumped the first pitch driving it high and deep to left-center just missing a game tying HR by inches as the ball hit high off the top of the green monster for a double. Romy Gonzalez was up next and put a good swing on a breaking ball and hit a hard ground ball up the middle into CF for a RBI single as Smith scores to tie the game up at 5-5. Green would retire Duran on a fly ball to Kiermaier in CF ending the inning and sending the game to the 9th inning with the score all even at 5-5. David Schneider came out to pinch hit for Ernie Clement leading off the top of the 9th with Bernardino remaining on the mound for Boston and Bernardino would get Schneider swinging on a nasty curveball for the 1st out. Bernardino snapped off another curveball to strikeout Kiermaier for the 2nd out before George Springer singled to put a man on for Toronto with 2 outs. Chris Martin replaced Bernardino on the mound with Bichette coming up and Guerrero lurking in the on deck circle and Martin would strikeout Bichette on a cutter away to end the top of the 9th and give the Red Sox a chance to walk off with a victory as they come to bat in the bottom of the 9th with the score tied 5-5. Blue Jays closer Jordan Romano was on to pitch in a non-save situation and Boston would have Hamilton, O'Neill and Devers due up in the bottom of the 9th. Hamilton gave the ball a ride leading off with a deep fly to right-center but Kiermaier would make catch on the warning track in front of the bullpens. O'Neill popped up behind the plate for the 2nd out bringing up Devers who battled to a full count and flew out to Springer in RF just shy of the warning track ending the 9th and we were headed to extra innings for the second time in this series. Martin retired Guerrero and located a cutter low and away off the plate to Justin Turner who did a great piece of hitting as he went down to get his bat on it and poked a liner into no mans land along the RF line for a RBI double as Bichette scores as the extra innings runner giving the Jays a 6-5 lead. Martin would retire Varsho for the 2nd out and struck out Alejandro Kirk to end the top of the 10th stranding Turner in scoring position and send the game to the bottom of the 10th with the Red Sox coming up to bat trailing 6-5 with Devers starting the inning on second base and Jordan Romano returned to the mound for the Blue Jays to pitch the bottom of the 10th. Connor Wong led off for Boston and smoked a liner to LF but it was right at Varsho who made the catch for the 1st out. Wilyer Abreu fouled off some tough pitches with two strikes to extend his at bat before hitting a high fly ball to deep LF where Varsho would make the catch and the Red Sox were down to their final out with Bobby Dalbec stepping to the plate. Romano quickly got ahead in the count and Dalbec would strikeout on a filthy slider away and the Blue Jays hang on to beat the Red Sox 6-5 in 10 innings

GAME NOTES
* The Blue Jays and Red Sox went to extra inning for the second time in the series as they were tied 5-5 after 9 innings. Toronto took a 6-5 lead on a RBI double from Justin Turner in the top of the 10th and Jordan Romano would slam the door closed in the bottom of the 10th as the Red Sox failed to score and the Jays hang on to win 6-5 and avoid the sweep

* The Red Sox take 2 out of 3 from the Blue Jays in what was a very tightly played series where the last place Blue Jays gave the Red Sox everything they could handle as 2 of the games went to extra innings and were decided by 1 run while the other game was a 2-0 Red Sox victory.

* The Red Sox fall to 52-29 while the Blue Jays improve to 33-48 on the season. The Red Sox are now 4-6 in their last 10 games and they have fallen out of 1st place for the first time since mid-May as they now trail the Baltimore Orioles (53-29) by 0.5 games for 1st place in the AL East Standings

* The Blue Jays were led by Bo Bichette who had a big night for Toronto going 3 for 5 with 4 RBI. Bichette also made a couple of excellent plays in the field at SS to impact the game with his glove as well as with his bat and is having a great season for Toronto hitting .312 with 14 HR & 47 RBI

* The Red Sox had 5 different playes collect a RBI as Rafael Devers (71), Tyler O'Neill (53), Dominic Smith (14), David Hamilton (12) and Romy Gonzalez (8) each knocked in a run

* Brayan Bello was not as sharp as he has been of late but still managed to pitch 6 innings allowing 5 runs (4 earned runs) on 11 hits with 2 walks & 7 Ks and did not factor in the decision

* Jose Berrios pitched 5.2 innings allowing 4 runs on 10 hits with 7 Ks and did not factor in the decision

* The Red Sox will have an off day tomorrow before the San Diego Padres come to Boston for a 3 game series at Fenway Park. The Padres have played below expectations and are in 3rd place in the NL West with a record of 41-44 on the season . Kutter Crawford will be on the mound to open the series for Boston while Joe Musgrove makes the start for San Diego

The Red Sox opened the scoring in the bottom of the 1st when Joe Musgrove retired Jarren Duran to begin the frame before leaving a 95 mph fastball up in the zone to David Hamilton who turned on it and launched a solo HR down the RF line putting Boston up 1-0. The Padres got on the board in the top of the 3rd on a two run RBI double by Ha-Seong Kim off the green monster to give San Diego a 2-1 lead. Tyler O'Neill just missed a HR with a shot high off the wall in left-center for a double leading off the bottom of the 4th and Masataka Yoshida brought him in with a RBI double tying the game 2-2 with 1 out. Wilyer Abreu was up next and launched an opposite field 2-run HR into the green monster seats giving Boston a 4-2 lead. San Diego was threatening with runners on 2nd & 3rd and 1 out in the top of the 5th but Kutter Crawford recorded a huge K of Manny Machado and retired Fernando Tatis on a ground ball as the Padres strand a pair in scoring position and the score remains 4-2. The Red Sox extended their lead with 2 outs in the bottom of the 5th when Tyler O'Neill launched an absolute rocket that left the yard in a hurry and cleared everything in left-center for a 451 foot 2-run HR making it 6-2. Rafael Devers was up next and he launched a 427 foot bomb over the Red Sox bullpen in RF making it back to back home runs to give Boston a 7-2 lead and knock Musgrove out of the game as Randy Vasquez came in to take over on the mound. Kutter Crawford went over 100 pitches as he finished his outing by retiring the side in a 1-2-3 top of the 6th with the Red Sox leading 7-2. Bailey Horn came in to take over for Crawford on the mound for Boston and pitched two perfect innings retiring the side in the top of the 7th & 8th inning keeping the score 7-2. Vasquez pitched a scoreless bottom of the 8th for San Diego sending the game to the 9th inning with the Red Sox leading 7-2. Greg Weissert came on to pitch the top of the 9th for Boston as the Padres come up to bat trailing 7-2 with Luis Campusano, Jake Cronenworth and David Peralta due to hit for San Diego. Weissert struck out Campusano to begin the 9th and Cronenworth hit a ground ball up the middle that was knocked down on the dive by Hamilton but he had no play and Cronenworth reaches with a 1 out single. Weissert came back and got Peralta to ground to Dominic Smith at first base to start a game ending 3-6-1 double play and the Red Sox take the opener of the series 7-2

GAME NOTES
* The Red Sox slug 4 home runs including a pair of tape measure shots by O'Neill and Devers while Kutter Crawford pitched 6 solid innings to lead the Red Sox to a 7-2 win in the opener of this 3 game series

* The Red Sox improve to 52-29 while the Padres fall to 41-45 on the season

* Tyler O'Neill went 2 for 4 with a double, HR & 2 RBI and is now hitting .258 with 21 HR & 55 RBI on the season

* Rafael Devers went 2 for 3 with a double, HR & 1 RBI and is now hitting .304 with 36 HR & 72 RBI on the season

* Wilyer Abreu and David Hamilton each went 1 for 4 with a HR in the ball game. Abreu is now hitting .239 with 8 HR & 24 RBI while Hamilton is now hitting .218 with 3 HR & 13 RBI

* Kutter Crawford pitched 6 strong innings for Boston allowing 2 runs on 7 hits with 1 walk & 5 Ks to earn the win and improve to 4-5 with a 4.38 ERA on the season

Re: TNK MLB 24 SLIDERS

TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
Game #83 of Season
San Diego Padres (41-45) @ Boston Red Sox (53-29)
Pitching Matchup – Michael King (6-6, 4.59 ERA) vs Nick Pivetta (4-4, 5.45 ERA)

The Padres knocked Nick Pivetta around early as they got a RBI single from Ha-Seong Kim in the top of the 1st and Kim would drive in two more runs with a RBI single in the top of the 2nd inning to give San Diego an early 3-0 lead. The Red Sox got on the board against Michael King in the bottom of the 2nd on a RBI double from Masataka Yoshida to cut the Padres lead to 3-1. Boston continued to chip away in the bottom of the 3rd with a RBI triple from Jarren Duran and a RBI ground out from David Hamilton to tie the game at 3-3. The Red Sox took the lead in the bottom of the 5th when Jarren Duran led off the inning with a towering solo HR into the Red Sox bullpen giving Boston a 4-3 lead. Pivetta settled in nicely after the rocky start to the ballgame and pitched a 1-2-3 top of the 6th and Adrian Morejon took over on the mound for San Diego and pitched a 1-2-3 bottom of the 6th sending the game to the 7th inning with the Red Sox leading 4-3. Pivetta returned to the mound and retired the first two batters in the top of the 7th before Manny Machado singled with 2 outs. Pivetta stayed in after a mound visit to face Luis Campusano and retired him on a ground ball to Smith at first base to end the frame. Morejon pitched a scoreless bottom of the 7th and we would head to the 8th inning with Boston leading 4-3. Brennan Bernardino came on to pitch the top of the 8th for Boston and Jake Cronenworth turned on the very first pitch from Bernardino and yanked a line drive deep down the RF line just inside the Pesky pole for a game tying HR evening the score at 4-4. Fernando Tatis pinch hit for Merrill and drew a walk before Bernardino got Profar to hit a double play ball to Devers who fielded it but sailed his throw into RF for a huge error that set up runners on the corners with nobody out for San Diego. Chris Martin replaced Bernardino on the mound and Bryce Johnson dropped a soft liner into LF for a RBI single giving the Padres a 5-4 lead. Martin did an outstanding job as he struck out Bogaerts before retiring Kim on a pop out and Arraez as Rafaela got back to make the catch on a blooper to left-center as the Padres fail to put up the big inning but now lead 5-4. Enyel De Los Santos retired O'Neill and Devers for two quick outs before striking out Wong in a 1-2-3 bottom of the 8th to send the game to the 9th inning with the Padres leading 5-4. Martin retired the Padres in order in the top of the 9th and the Red Sox would come to bat in the bottom of the 9th trailing 5-4 with Padres closer Robert Suarez coming on to try and close it out for San Diego. Suarez struck out Yoshida to begin the 9th before Wilyer Abreu lined a ball into the RF corner for a double putting the tying run in scoring position with 1 out. Dominic Smith flew out to Merrill in CF and the Red Sox were down to their final out with Ceddanne Rafaela coming up. Rafaela got a slider over the plate on the first pitch from Suarez and lined it in the gap for a RBI double tying the game at 5-5. Suarez retired Duran on a fly ball to CF and we would head to extra innings tied 5-5. The Padres failed to score in the top of the 10th despite the extra innings runners beginning the inning on second base as Martin struck out Johnson to end the frame stranding Cronenworth at third base. The Red Sox had the speedy Jarren Duran on second base to start the bottom of the 10th. Suarez would get both Hamilton and O'Neill to pop up for two quick outs bringing up Devers with 2 outs. The Padres would intentionally walk Devers and bring in Sean Reynolds to face Wong and Reese McGuire would come on to pinch hit and would fly out to LF sending the game to the 11th inning tied 5-5. Josh Winckowski recorded 2 Ks in the top of the 11th as the Padres again failed to push across the extra innings runner. Yoshida flew out to Johnson in RF leading off the bottom of the 11th and McGuire would tag and advance to third base putting the winning run 90 feet away with 1 out and Wilyer Abreu stepping to the plate. Abreu would line a pitch into LF for a walk off

Re: TNK MLB 24 SLIDERS

TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
Game #84 of Season
San Diego Padres (41-46) @ Boston Red Sox (54-29)
Pitching Matchup – Dylan Cease (5-7, 4.33 ERA) vs Cooper Criswell (5-2, 3.02 ERA)

The Padres took a 1-0 lead on an opposite field solo HR into the green monster seats by Jake Cronenworth in the top of the 1st inning. Cooper Criswell settled in and Dylan Cease was off to a good start on the mound for San Diego as the score remained into the bottom of the 3rd where Cease got Tyler O'Neill to hit the ball on the ground to Machado with 1 out for what should have had an inning ending 5-4-3 double play but Machado pulled Bogaerts off the bag at second base and everyone was safe bringing up Rafael Devers with the bases loaded. Cease came back with a huge K getting Devers on a changeup away for the 2nd out but Connor Wong delivered with 2 outs as he lined a ball down the RF line for a RBI double scoring two runs to give Boston a 2-1 lead heading to the 4th inning. San Diego would pull even in the top of the 5th when they put runners on the corners with 1 out and Luis Campusano knocked in Fernando Tatis with a RBI sac fly tying the game 2-2. Cease struck out Devers to end the bottom of the 5th stranding Hamilton in scoring position sending the game to the 6th with the score tied 2-2. Criswell recorded 2 quick outs to start the top of the 6th before a single by Bogaerts and a walk by Merrill put two men on with 2 outs. The runners moved up on a pitch in the dirt but Criswell would finish his outing by freezing Fernando Tatis with a nasty slider to end the top of the 6th. Cease pitched a scoreless bottom of the 6th sending the game to the 7th inning with the score tied 2-2. Zack Kelly took over on the mound and pitched a 1-2-3 top of the 7th while Stephen Kolek came on for San Diego and pitched a scoreless bottom of the 7th to send the game to the 8th inning tied 2-2. Jake Cronenworth drew a 1 out walk against Kelly in the top of the 8th and moved into scoring position on a pitch in the dirt before Xander Bogaerts shot a ground ball past the dive of Smith at first base and down the RF line for a RBI double giving San Diego a 3-2 lead. Bailey Horn replaced Kelly on the mound and retired Jackson Merrill to end the top of the 8th with the Padres now leading 3-2. Yuki Matsui came on to pitch the bottom of the 8th for San Diego and Rafael Devers led off the inning with a towering fly ball deep to left-center that kept carrying into the monster seats for a game tying solo HR evening the score 3-3. Matsui came back to retire the next 3 hitters ending the 8th inning with the score tied 3-3 as we head to the 9th inning. The Padres answered in the top of the 9th with a lead off single from Tatis before Ha-Seong Kim followed with a 2-run HR over the green monster putting the San Diego up 5-3. Horn came back to retire the next 3 batters and we would head to the bottom of the 9th with the Red Sox coming up to hit trailing 5-3 and Padres closer Robert Suarez coming on to try and close it out and record the save. Suarez made quick work of Smith and Rafaela and the Red Sox were down to their final out with the top of the order coming up. Suarez had two strikes on Rob Refsnyder and tried to put him away with a changeup away but Refsnyder went down to get it and was able to drive it over the wall in LF for a solo HR cutting the deficit to 5-4. David Hamilton hit a ground ball back up the middle but Suarez was able to get his glove on it to make the play on the mound and threw to first base for the final out as the Padres hang on to salvage a win and avoid the sweep with a 5-4 victory

GAME NOTES
* The Red Sox fall in the series finale to the Padres 5-4 as San Diego avoids the sweep

* The Red Sox fall to 54-30 and still trail the 1st place Baltimore Orioles (55-30) by 0.5 games in the AL East Standings while the Padres improve to 42-46 on the season

* Ha-Seong Kim snapped a 3-3 tie when he hit the go ahead HR for San Diego in the top of the 9th and finished the game 2 for 4 with a HR & 2 RBI. Kim had a monster series for the Padres hitting .571 (8 for 14) with 2 doubles, 1 HR & 7 RBI in the 3 games at Fenway Park

* Cooper Criswell returned to the Boston rotation after a short stint in Worcester (AA) and pithed 6 innings allowing 2 runs on 6 hits with 1 walk & 7 Ks earning a no decision

* Dylan Cease pitched 6 innings allowing 2 runs (0 earned runs) on 7 hits with 10 Ks but did not factor in the decision for San Diego

Re: TNK MLB 24 SLIDERS

TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
Game #85 of Season
Boston Red Sox (54-30) @ Miami Marlins (39-45)
Pitching Matchup – Tanner Houck (8-6, 4.45 ERA) vs Edward Cabrera (2-6, 4.43 ERA)

The Red Sox opened the scoring in the top of the 1st as Jarren Duran led off the game with a single and came in to score on a RBI single by Rafael Devers with 2 outs. Tanner Houck retired the first 6 Marlins hitters before Nick Gordon reached on a throwing error by Hamilton to lead off the bottom of the 3rd. Houck came right back to get Vidal Brujan to ground into a 5-4-3 double play and struck out Nick Fortes as the Marlins were still looking for their first hit of the night and we would head to the 4th inning with Boston leading 1-0. Edward Cabrera was pitching well for Miami as he cruised through the top of the 4th while Houck retired the side in the bottom of the 4th sending the game to the 5th inning with the Red Sox leading 1-0. Edwards retired the side in the top of the 5th while Houck struck out the side in the bottom of the 5th giving him 7 Ks on the night and we would head to the 6th inning with Boston leading 1-0 and the Marlins still in search of their first hit of the ballgame. Cabrera and Andrew Nardi combined to pitch a scoreless top of the 6th and Nick Gordon walked to begin the bottom of the 6th. Houck retired Vidal Brujan on a fielders choice and Nick Fortes on his 8th K of the night before Jazz Chisholm broke up the no-hitter with 2 outs in the bottom of the 6th on an opposite field line drive into the LF corner but Brujan was thrown out on an excellent relay throw from O'Neill to Rafaela to home plate where Wong would tag Brujan for the 3rd out ending the 6th and sending us to the 7th inning with the Red Sox leading 1-0. Nardi pitched a 1-2-3 top of the 7th and Miami would get a single from Bryan De La Cruz before Jesus Sanchez ripped a ball into the RF corner with 2 outs but De La Cruz would be thrown out at the plate as the Marlins have a runner cut down at home plate to end the inning for the second straight inning and we would head to the 8th inning with the Red Sox clinging to a 1-0 lead. AJ Puk retired the side in the top of the 8th for Miami and Houck remained in the game and finished his outing with a 1-2-3 bottom of the 8th ending the game to the 9th inning with the Red Sox leading 1-0. Declan Cronin came on to pitch the top of the 9th for the Marlins and Connor Wong smoked a ball to the gap in right-center and wound up on third base with a lead off triple. Masataka Yoshida followed with a ground ball to the right side that Brujan got to in the hole and threw home but Wong slid in safely extending the lead to 2-0. Cronin retired the next 3 batters and the Marlins would come up to bat in the bottom of the 9th trailing 2-0 with Houck returning to the mound to begin the bottom of the 9th at 90 pitches with Kenley Jansen warming in the bullpen. Nick Fortes grounded out to Rafaela to begin the bottom of the 9th and Houck would record his 10th K by striking out Chisholm and the Marlins were down to their final out with Xavier Edwards coming to the plate. Edwards hit the ball on the grond to Smith at first base who fielded it cleanly and stepped on the bag for the final out

The Sox would put runners on the corners with 1 out but Garrett would retire Ceddanne Rafaela and David Hamilton on a pair of pop ups to escape the jam with no further damage keeping it a 1-0 game. Bello cruised through the bottom of the 2nd and the Red Sox came out swinging in the top of the 3rd as Jarren Duran doubled down the LF line and came in to score on a RBI single by Rob Refsnyder who stays hot and extends his hitting streak to 11 games making it 2-0.
