Game Summary
Boston Red Sox defeated the Baltimore Orioles 6-5. Boston won largely on the long ball and timely late offense: the Red Sox hit four homers, including two from Adley Rutschman, and Nick Sogard ripped a two-run shot in the eighth that flipped a 3-3 game and put Boston ahead. Starter Jake Bennett delivered six innings with seven strikeouts, and reliever Erik Miller earned the victory. Aroldis Chapman worked the ninth and recorded the save but yielded Christian Encarnacion-Strand’s two-run homer as Baltimore rallied too late. The clubs finished with seven hits apiece and one Baltimore error.
