The Atlanta Braves take the win against the Boston Red Sox 7-6 at Fenway Park, in an ending that came eerily close; the offensive production woke up when it mattered.
After giving up two back-to-back homers in the bottom of the first to Boston’s Jarren Duran and Ceddanne Rafaela (2-0), Spencer Strider held the Red Sox to those two runs in his five innings pitched on three hits, also walking three batters and getting five strikeouts with 11 total whiffs.
Atlanta didn’t go scoreless for long, when Matt
Olson hit a two-run homer over the green monster to drive in Mauricio Dubón to tie the score (2-2).
