← 2024 Seasons

The 2025 Boston Red Sox season is the ongoing 125th season in Boston Red Sox franchise history, and their 114th season at Fenway Park. Alex Cora is the team's on-field manager, in the fifth season of his second stint in that role. The team opened the regular season in an away game against the Texas Rangers on March 27, and is scheduled to conclude with a home game against the Detroit Tigers on September 28.[2]

Offseason

[edit]

In September 2024, the team announced they would introduce a new "City Connect 2.0" uniform for the 2025 season, while retaining their existing City Connect uniform (yellow and blue) and retiring their blue alternate road jersey, which had been introduced in 2009.[3] As of late November, the team had 10 players under contract for the 2025 season: Brayan Bello, Rafael Devers, Lucas Giolito, Liam Hendriks, Ceddanne Rafaela, Rob Refsnyder, Trevor Story, Garrett Whitlock, Justin Wilson, and Masataka Yoshida.[4]

Spring training

[edit]

"Truck Day", when the team's equipment departs Fenway Park for Florida, was February 3.[60]

The team's first spring training game, an exhibition contest against the Northeastern Huskies at JetBlue Park on February 21, resulted in a 5–2 victory for the Red Sox.[61] The team's Grapefruit League schedule ran from February 22 through March 23,[62][63] during which the Red Sox compiled a 15–12 record.[64]

The Red Sox concluded their spring training with two games in Monterrey, Mexico, played March 24–25 against the Monterrey Sultanes.[65] The Red Sox took both games, winning by scores of 10–1 and 12–8.[66][67]

[edit]

On March 26, manager Alex Cora announced that Rafael Devers will move to the DH position with Alex Bregman becoming the regular third baseman.[69]

March 27–30, at Texas Rangers

[edit]

The Red Sox began the season with a four game series away at the Texas Rangers. The Red Sox won the first game of the series by a score of 5–2. Wilyer Abreu had three hits, two of which were home-runs; Aroldis Chapman earned the win in relief and Justin Slaten got his first save of the season.[70][71][72] The Red Sox lost the second game, 1–4. Tanner Houck gave up the four runs scored by Texas over his 5+23 innings start, whilst Devers' struck out during all four of his at-bats (making him 0 for 7 with 6 strikeouts to begin the season).[73][74][75] Texas won the third game of the series, 4–3. Walker Buehler gave up the four runs over 4+13 innings whilst striking out three opponents. Devers' hitting woes continued with three strikeouts and no hits in the game, making him the first big-leaguer with ten strikeouts in three games to open a season. Kristian Campbell hit his first home run as a major league player.[76][77][78] The Rangers then took the series with a 3–2 victory on March 30, a game that saw rookie starter Richard Fitts saddled with the loss despite a decent pitching line (6 innings, 3 earned runs, 6 hits). Fitts gave up just one run through his first five innings before giving up home runs to Wyatt Langford and Adolis García in the sixth. Devers again went hitless and struck out twice. Wilyer Abreu manufactured both Boston runs, both in the sixth inning, hitting an RBI double to score Kristian Campbell and then scoring himself on an error by Texas' Ezequiel Duran.[79][80][81]

Red Sox lost the series 1–3 (11–13 runs)

March 31–April 3, at Baltimore Orioles

[edit]

Boston's troubles from their season-opening Texas series carried into the opener in Baltimore. Sean Newcomb, a surprise addition to the roster out of spring training, was jumped on immediately by the Orioles, as Tyler O'Neill (who spent the previous season with Boston) drove in the game's first run, advanced to third on a Jarren Duran error that scored Adley Rutschman, and then scored himself on a two-run Cedric Mullins double that brought home O'Neill and Mountcastle. Trailing 4–0 after one frame, Duran recorded a two-RBI double in the top 2nd, bringing home Romy González and Kristian Campbell. Campbell hit into an RBI ground out in the 3rd, cutting the Baltimore lead to 4–3. Newcomb was pulled after four innings, having given up four earned runs, eight hits, and two walks while striking out two. The Oriole offense quieted until facing reliever Justin Slaten, who gave up four earned runs in the eighth inning; González and Duran added RBIs in the ninth to bring the final tally to 8–5.[82][83][84]

As the calendar turned to April, the Red Sox received a day off before the remainder of the Orioles series, and then shut out the Orioles for their second win of the season on April 2. Garrett Crochet twirled a masterful outing in his second Red Sox start, pitching eight innings and striking out eight while only surrendering four hits. Crochet's pitching helped Boston's three runs (Trevor Story's second inning solo home run, his first of the season, followed by a Ceddanne Rafaela RBI single and a Rafael Devers RBI double in the fifth) hold up.[85][86][87]

In the series finale, Boston sent Tanner Houck to the bump to oppose Baltimore's Charlie Morton. Sox fans were treated early with a highly anticipated moment: Alex Bregman's first home run as a Red Sox, which came in the opening half-inning and brought home Devers, setting the tone for Boston with an early 2–0 lead. Cedric Mullins homered in the bottom of the 1st to bring the score to 2–1, but Campbell responded with another two-run homer – the second long ball of his young career – in the top of the 2nd. Triston Casas hit his first home run of the season in the seventh inning. Houck's final line was four innings pitched, three earned runs, five hits, and six strikeouts, not quite good enough for the decision, which went to reliever Zack Kelly, who became the pitcher of record in an 8–4 Boston victory and a 2–1 series win for the Red Sox heading into their home opener against the St. Louis Cardinals.[88][89][90]

Red Sox won the series 2–1 (16–12 runs)

April 4–6, vs. St. Louis Cardinals

[edit]

The Red Sox delighted their home fans with a high-scoring 13–9 victory on Friday, April 4 in their home opener against St. Louis. Boston sent Walker Buehler to the mound for his second start in a Red Sox uniform, and he surrendered five earned runs and seven hits in five innings of work. However, Buehler was able to take home the win thanks to immediate run support from Boston, as the Sox plated five runs in the bottom of the 1st, with Alex Bregman hitting an RBI double, Trevor Story hitting his third home run of the season (a three-run blast), immediately followed by Wilyer Abreu cracking his second long ball of the year, bringing the score to 5–0. St. Louis's offense got going in the 3rd and 4th innings, with a three-run top of the 4th bringing the score to 6–5 in favor of the Red Sox. Boston replied, however, with a two-run bottom half of the inning. The Red Sox bats got hot again in the 7th with a three-run frame that included RBIs from Ceddanne Rafaela, Rafael Devers, and Jarren Duran, before adding on two more runs in the 8th with an Abreu RBI groundout and a Carlos Narváez double. Leading 13–6, the contest seemed decided before the Cardinals added three runs of their own in the top of the ninth to cut the Boston lead to four, which necessitated bringing in closer Aroldis Chapman. Chapman shut down the St. Louis rally over 23 IP to secure the win.[91][92][93]

The scheduled Saturday game between the two teams was delayed due to rain, and was to be made up on Sunday as part of a day-night doubleheader.[94]

In the afternoon game on Sunday, the makeup game for Saturday's rainout, Sean Newcomb took the hill for Boston, opposing Andre Pallante. Newcomb authored a statline of one earned run, six hits, and four strikeouts across 4+23 innings. St. Louis drew first blood with a run in the top of the 4th but was immediately answered by David Hamilton singling in Rob Refsnyder for the Red Sox in the bottom half of the inning. Rafael Devers continued to climb out of his slump with a solo homer in the 5th, but the Cardinals scratched out three unanswered runs off the bat of Pedro Pagés, who hit an RBI double in the top 6th and a 2-RBI double in the 8th. Meanwhile, with both starting pitchers gone, the Cardinal bullpen was keeping Boston off the scoreboard. The Sox' fortunes would turn in the bottom of the 9th, however. Trailing 4–2, Boston forced extra innings thanks to a Romy González RBI double and a Devers walk with the bases loaded, which tied the contest. Aroldis Chapman kept St. Louis off the scoresheet in the top of the 10th, paving way for the Sox to load the bases in the bottom half of the inning, where a familiar hero came through yet again: Wilyer Abreu. Abreu unloaded on a Ryan Fernandez pitch with the bases loaded, nearly clearing the Green Monster for a grand slam, but even though Abreu missed a long ball, the resulting RBI single was more than enough to bring home Alex Bregman and claim a 5–4 comeback win.[95][96][97]

Hunter Dobbins made his MLB debut when he started in the nightcap and final game of the series. With his parents in attendance, Dobbins fanned five batters and allowed two runs across five innings of work. The story of the series finale, however, was Boston's bats, especially those of Bregman and Devers. Bregman further endeared himself to the Fenway faithful with 6 RBIs and 4 hits in 5 at-bats, including a 3-run double in the 2nd and a 3-run home run in the 3rd. Devers was a perfect 4-for-4, driving home 3 runs and scoring 4 of his own. Boston led St. Louis 10–1 after just three innings, and all told, manufactured 18 runs in total as part of an 18–7 victory to clinch the series sweep. Cooper Criswell, who pitched the final three innings of the game, was credited with his first save of the season.[98][99][100]

Red Sox won the series 3–0 (36–20 runs)

April 7–10, vs. Toronto Blue Jays

[edit]

The Red Sox dropped the opener of this four-game series, 6–2, ending their five-game winning streak with a loss to the José Berríos-led Jays on a chilly (37 °F (3 °C) at first pitch) and misty night at Fenway Park. Richard Fitts, opposing Berríos, dropped to 0–2 on the season despite a respectable six-inning, four-strikeout outing in which the youngster surrendered three runs. Berríos outdueled Fitts, however, allowing just one run across seven innings of work. George Springer led the charge offensively for Toronto with three separate RBI singles in the 2nd, 5th, and 7th innings, while Boston's offense was held to a Rafael Devers RBI sacrifice fly in the 2nd and a Triston Casas RBI single in the 8th. The Monday loss carried a lack of offense from Boston that marked a sharp departure from their 36-run series against St. Louis over the weekend.[101][102][103]

Boston fell back to a .500 winning percentage with a 6–1 defeat at the hands of the Blue Jays in the second game of the series. The Red Sox sent Garrett Crochet to the mound for his third start in a Red Sox uniform, and he dueled with Toronto's Easton Lucas. Crochet and Lucas kept the scoreboard full of zeroes through the first five innings of the game, but the Jays broke through in the top 6th when Springer homered. Although Crochet held Toronto to two runs (one earned) through 5+23 innings, with two outs in the 6th, Crochet was the victim of a Bregman error and a Kristian Campbell error, and Crochet also walked two batters. With things unraveling, Crochet was replaced in favor of reliever Zack Kelly, who promptly gave up a 2-RBI single from Bo Bichette before mercifully retiring Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Now trailing 4–0, the Toronto bullpen continued to keep Boston's bats at bay. The Sox scratched out a run in the bottom 7th with a Ceddanne Rafaela RBI single. Bichette and Anthony Santander drove in two more runs in the top 8th to put the game out of reach, and Crochet was saddled with the loss, bringing his record to 1–1 across three starts.[104][105][106]

The Red Sox fell below .500 with an extra-innings loss in the third game of the series, officially losing the Toronto slate regardless of the result of the fourth game. Game three was a pitcher's duel between the Sox' Tanner Houck and the Blue Jays' Kevin Gausman. While the contest had offense early, with both teams scoring once in the first (Will Wagner hitting into an RBI ground out for Toronto followed by Bregman belting a sacrifice fly), the 1–1 score remained until the eleventh, when Bichette's own RBI sac fly brought home Ernie Clement, who proved to be the winning run in the 2–1 Toronto victory. Though Houck allowed only the one run with five hits and struck out two batters in 6+23 innings, Gausman reeled off eight innings of work and punched out ten Red Sox hitters; Kristian Campbell showed signs of his newness by striking out thrice. Neither Houck nor Gausman factored into the final decisions; Josh Winckowski was charged with the loss for Boston, while Toronto's Jeff Hoffman and Nick Sandlin earned the win and a save, respectively.[107][108][109]

Boston salvaged the final contest of the series and avoided the four-game sweep with a 4–3 extra-inning win in the Thursday afternoon getaway game. Walker Buehler opposed Chris Bassitt in yet another game where early offense was lacking; in 6+13 innings, Buehler gave up just one run and four hits while punching out seven Blue Jays, and Bassitt allowed one run and five hits in 5+23 while striking out five Red Sox. Boston got on the board first, when Bregman singled home Jarren Duran in the bottom 6th. Toronto responded quickly, though, with Tyler Heineman's RBI single tying the game before a Trevor Story error allowed Myles Straw to score, giving the Blue Jays a 2–1 lead. In the bottom 8th, Rob Refsnyder scampered home on a wild pitch to even the score at 2–2, and neither side scored in the 9th, sending a second straight game to extra frames. In the top of the 10th, the Jays retook the lead when Springer scored Andrés Giménez on a sacrifice fly. In the bottom half, Boston tied the game when backup catcher Blake Sabol scored on a Duran RBI single, and later in the inning, Story turned the tables on his earlier error by hitting into a defensive miscue himself: Giménez failed to field Story's infield roller cleanly, allowing David Hamilton to score, which was enough to send the Red Sox to Chicago in a happier mood with a 4–3 victory. An interesting footnote from this contest involves Boston Celtics guard Derrick White, who threw out the ceremonial first pitch – White also threw out the first pitch, along with other members of the 2024 championship Celtics, on June 24, 2024, prior to a game, also against Toronto, that also ended in walk-off fashion.[110][111][112]

Red Sox lost the series 1–3 (8–17 runs)

April 11–13, at Chicago White Sox

[edit]

The Red Sox opened this weekend series against the White Sox looking to build on momentum from their walk-off win against Toronto, but Chicago had other plans. Sean Newcomb took the hill for Boston alongside Davis Martin, and while Martin twirled six innings of one-run ball with six strikeouts, Newcomb struggled. In just four innings of work, Newcomb surrendered six runs, although only two of them were earned runs owing to a parade of Red Sox defensive errors – five in total, the Red Sox' first five-error outing since August 2021. Chicago's offensive onslaught started innocently enough: with two on in the bottom 2nd, Jacob Amaya hit a 2-RBI double. It was in the bottom 4th that the White Sox broke the game open. Miguel Vargas doubled to score Omar Narváez and Chase Meidroth; Luis Robert singled up the middle to score Vargas; and Lenyn Sosa singled to right field to score Robert. The four-run ChiSox frame made the score 6–0, and, with Newcomb now out of the contest, the White Sox added another in the 5th when Nárvaez belted a sacrifice fly to drive in Michael A. Taylor. Narváez struck again in the 7th, this time with a 2-RBI single that brought home Taylor and Brooks Baldwin. Up 9–1, Chicago made its humiliation of the Red Sox complete in the 8th with a two-run inning (RBIs from Sosa and Baldwin) to take an 11–1 lead, paving the way for a ten-run margin of victory. Boston's only run of the game came off the bat of Blake Sabol in the top 7th; Sabol's sac fly scored Wilyer Abreu. Newcomb took the loss for the BoSox, while the ChiSox win was credited to Martin. The Red Sox' defeat ended an eight-game winless streak for Chicago.[113][114][115]

Boston dispatched Richard Fitts to the bump for game two, opposing Chicago's Martín Pérez. Fitts had a fine outing in a five-inning start, allowing no runs and just two hits while striking out five White Sox. Pérez, meanwhile, held the Red Sox scoreless through four innings, but Boston broke through in the top 5th with a Ceddanne Rafaela triple that scored Narváez. Romy González singled to bring in Rafaela, giving Boston a 2–0 lead, but that was all the offense the Red Sox would be good for on this day. The White Sox, meanwhile, answered Boston's offense in the bottom of the 6th against reliever Zack Kelly, when Robert homered to center field to score Vargas and himself. With the game tied 2–2, both bullpens kept the contest tied until the bottom 9th, when closer Aroldis Chapman came in to force extra innings and failed, walking Robert and allowing him to steal second base with Baldwin at bat. Baldwin then hit an RBI single for the walk-off game-winning run, a 3–2 final. The White Sox took only their fourth win of the season and the Red Sox allowed Chicago their first series of the season in which they would win more than one game. Boston fell to 7–9 on the season, having lost five of their last six games.[116][117][118]

The Red Sox again salvaged the final game of the series, this time thanks to a masterful outing from Garrett Crochet, who showed little mercy in his first start against the team that traded him to Boston. Crochet struck out eleven ChiSox batters and threw a no-hitter through 7+13 innings. Crochet was pulled only after giving up a hit to Chase Meidroth, who was included in the Red Sox–White Sox deal for Crochet. The Mississippi native's final line was one run (one earned) and just one hit and one walk through 7+13 innings pitched. With Crochet stifling Chicago's offense, he didn’t need much in the way of run support, and Trevor Story provided all of it. Story doubled in the top 6th to score Wilyer Abreu and Alex Bregman, and then hit a solo home run in the top 9th. Chapman earned his third save of the season to shut the door on the White Sox for a 3–1 Boston victory.[119][120][121]

Red Sox lost the series 1–2 (6–15 runs)

April 14–16, at Tampa Bay Rays

[edit]

Boston opened their road series at Tampa Bay's temporary home of George M. Steinbrenner Field and were greeted with yet another series-opening loss, this one a 16–1 humiliation. Tanner Houck started for the Red Sox and was instantly shaky, giving up a Yandy Díaz long ball in the 1st inning for a 1–0 Rays lead. Houck then allowed four runs in the 2nd: a 2–run home run off the bat of Kameron Misner and a 2-RBI Brandon Lowe single. Boston got one back in the top of the 3rd when Kristian Campbell sent a Shane Baz pitch out to left field for a solo homer, but the rookie's knock was all the offense the Sox would be good for, and their worst inning was yet to come. Houck melted completely in the bottom half of the inning, a nine-run onslaught suffered by Houck and reliever Michael Fulmer, who relieved the embattled starter with only one out in the inning. Tampa hit no home runs in the inning, but benefited from an official scorer's delight of different scoring options: two force outs that produced a total of three runs (one off an Alex Bregman error), three RBI singles and two 2-RBI doubles. With Houck out of the game, he was forced to confront a disastrous scoreline: 10 hits and 12 runs, 11 of them earned, across just 2+13 innings of work. Houck struck out only one batter, walked two Rays and gave up two home runs. Perhaps the worst part of the 14–1 Rays lead is that they weren't done: a Junior Caminero solo home run in the 4th and a second Misner long ball in the 8th furthered Boston's misery. Although a comeback from such a profound thrashing would have been unlikely, Tampa Bay's starter Baz didn't help matters, fanning 11 Red Sox hitters and allowing just one run and two hits across a 6-inning outing. The loss dropped Boston to 8–10.[122][123][124]

Looking to put their 16–1 beating behind them, the Red Sox needed some big performances – and they got one from Alex Bregman, who provided the first 5-hit and 5-for-5 game of his career in the middle contest against Tampa Bay. Bregman homered to score Rafael Devers and himself in the top of the 1st to get Boston going early against Rays starter Ryan Pepiot. Jarren Duran took Pepiot deep for a solo shot in the top 2nd to get the Sox out to a 3–0 advantage. Bregman's and Duran's blasts were summarily answered by Jonathan Aranda's home run to center field, but Bregman humbled Pepiot again in the top of the 3rd with his second homer of the game. Later in the inning, Ceddanne Rafaela's shallow right-field single drove in Wilyer Abreu for a 5–1 Boston lead. Batting in the top 4th, Bregman struck again with an RBI double to score Duran. The Rays' Misner scored Caminero in the bottom of the frame to draw Tampa Bay to within four runs, but, following two scoreless innings from both sides, Bregman crushed a third home run in the top 7th, this time a solo blast to center off reliever Hunter Bigge. Down 7–2, Tampa Bay started a rally in the bottom of the 9th, with Taylor Walls and Yandy Díaz providing RBIs to pull the Rays within three runs. Now in a save situation, Aroldis Chapman relieved Zack Kelly for the final out and the save to seal a 7–4 Red Sox win. Starter Walker Buehler provided a solid pitching performance for Boston, as he improved to 2–1 on the season after twirling a 2-run, 3-walk, 3-strikeout outing in five innings of work.[125][126][127]

The Red Sox held the Rays to just five hits as they made one run stand up in a 1–0 victory in Game 3, taking the series 2–1. Boston sent Sean Newcomb to the hill as he looked to rebound from his shaky start against Chicago on April 11, a game that culminated in an 11–1 defeat. The Middleborough native was much steadier this time around, allowing four hits but no runs and fanning four Tampa Bay batters in 4+23 innings of work. However, it was reliever Greg Weissert who was charged with the win after he entered for Newcomb and pitched 1+13 and struck out three Rays. Weissert was one of three bullpen arms used in this game, and none of them disappointed: Garrett Whitlock suppressed Tampa Bay for two innings, setting up Justin Slaten, who converted a two-strikeout save, his second of the season. All told, Boston's bullpen allowed just one hit and retired thirteen of the last fourteen Rays batters. The single run scored by the Sox belonged to David Hamilton, who lasered a ball into a line-drive solo home run over the right field fence in the top of the 3rd inning. Tampa Bay's Zack Littell surrendered only five hits and the Hamilton blast across six innings of work, but the Red Sox prevailed in this pitching duel.[128][129][130]

Red Sox won the series 2–1 (9–20 runs)

April 18–21, vs. Chicago White Sox

[edit]

The Red Sox returned to Fenway and opened their traditional Patriots' Day four-game weekend series with another showdown against the Chicago White Sox, who had surprised Boston with a 2–1 series victory the previous weekend. The BoSox jumped on the ChiSox right out of the gate in Game One, with Trevor Story cracking a home run to center field to give Boston an early 3–0 lead after the first inning. In the bottom 3rd, Boston expanded their lead with a Rob Refsnyder RBI double that scored Story. Former Red Sox Andrew Benintendi replied for Chicago in the top 4th, belting a solo shot to right, but in the bottom half of the inning Ceddanne Rafaela answered back, his home run to left field scoring himself and Carlos Narváez, putting the Red Sox in front 6–1. Chicago plated one run in the 6th to pull within four, but Story put the game out of reach in the bottom 7th with his second home run of the game, another three-run long ball that scored Alex Bregman and Rafael Devers along with himself to put Boston ahead 9–2. Nárvaez kept the home run party going with a solo bomb of his own – his first career major league home run – in the bottom 8th to give the Red Sox double digits. Brooks Baldwin's RBI single in the top of the 9th put the final scoreline at 10–3, a seven-run Boston margin for their third consecutive victory. Hunter Dobbins improved to 2–0 on the mound for the Red Sox, striking out six ChiSox in six innings pitched and allowing just two runs and three hits. Chicago's Martín Pérez was charged with the loss, only going three innings and allowing four runs on five hits with two walks and no strikeouts.[131][132][133]

Saturday was Garrett Crochet day again for the Red Sox, as Boston sent their talented new pitcher to the mound for his second start of the season against his former team. Crochet was again sterling – he earned whiffs from seven Chicago hitters and allowed four hits (no runs) across six innings of work. However, the Mississippi native wouldn't earn the decision against the White Sox. In the bottom of the fifth inning, Devers broke a scoreless tie with his second home run of the season, a three-run blast to center field that brought home Rafaela and Jarren Duran. In the top of the 7th inning, with the Boston bullpen now in charge, the White Sox strung together three runs of their own: Chase Meidroth singled to center field to score Josh Palacios, and Luis Robert cracked a two-run home run over the Green Monster, scoring Meidroth and himself, tying the game. All three ChiSox runs in the seventh were charged to Greg Weissert. In the bottom of the 9th, the Red Sox appeared to be on the verge of the victory against Chicago's Jordan Leasure, who intentionally walked Devers to pitch to Bregman. However, Leasure struck out Bregman to force extra innings. In the 10th, Chicago began the frame with the benefit of a ghost runner at second base, but Garrett Whitlock fanned two White Sox hitters. In the bottom of the 10th, Bregman was placed on second as Boston's ghost runner; with one out, Wilyer Abreu was intentionally walked by Chicago's Mike Vasil, and Vasil then walked Kristian Campbell, sending Bregman over to third. Triston Casas then hit a long fly ball off the top of the Green Monster, and Bregman casually jogged home to provide the winning run in this 4–3 BoSox victory. Whitlock was credited with the win, Vasil with the loss, and Chicago starter Shane Smith earned a no-decision after a 3-run, 4-hit, 3-strikeout, 1-walk performance in 4+23 innings.[134][135][136]

Tanner Houck was the starting pitcher for the Red Sox in the Sunday afternoon tilt. Houck immediately ran into trouble when he gave up a 2-run Matt Thaiss long ball in the top 1st. Afterwards, though, Houck settled, ultimately striking out 7 ChiSox hitters and allowing just three hits in six innings pitched. However, like Crochet on Saturday, Houck would not prove to be the pitcher of record for Boston. The Red Sox responded to the Thaiss homer with an Abreu bomb in the bottom 1st, a 3-run shot that brought home Bregman and Devers. In the bottom 2nd, Duran brought home backup catcher Blake Sabol with an RBI single. This is where the scoring for Boston would end, however. With the score at 4–2 Red Sox, the two sides settled in for four straight innings (3rd–6th) of scoreless baseball, until Chicago struck in the 7th against the Sox' Zack Kelly. Brooks Baldwin deftly placed a sacrifice bunt down, scoring Lenyn Sosa, bringing Chicago to within one. Edgar Quero then brought home two runs with a 2-RBI single to shallow center field. Palacios and Miguel Vargas crossed home plate as the tying and go-ahead runs. Now up 5–4, the White Sox kept the momentum going in the top 8th when Andrew Vaughn homered to center field against Liam Hendriks, who was making his first appearance in a Red Sox uniform after a nearly two-year absence since beating non-Hodgkin lymphoma and undergoing Tommy John surgery for an elbow injury. Hendriks gave up another run in the top 9th, hitting Thaiss with a pitch with the bases loaded, which forced Baldwin home for the final run in an 8–4 Chicago victory. Kelly was charged with the loss while Brandon Eisert picked up the win out of the bullpen for the ChiSox.[137][138][139][140]

The Red Sox closed out this four-game series with a 4–2 victory in their traditional 11:05 a.m. start on the Patriots' Day holiday. Boston sent Walker Buehler to the bump, and the former Dodger twirled seven innings of four-hit, one-run ball while fanning nine White Sox hitters and walking three. Behind this strong outing from Buehler (who improved to 3–1), the Boston offense didn't need to do much. Though Chicago struck first with a Quero RBI single in the top 1st, Rob Refsnyder answered in the bottom 2nd with a solo shot over the Monster off of Jonathan Cannon to tie the game. Story singled to center field to score Duran in the bottom 3rd, and both Story and Bregman scored on a 2-RBI single to right field by Kristian Campbell. Now up 4–1, this was all the offense the Red Sox would need to produce. In the top 8th, Andrew Benintendi stroked an Aroldis Chapman pitch to right field to make it a two-run contest, but Justin Slaten shut the door on the White Sox in the 9th, hurling a one-two-three inning to earn his fourth save of the year and give the Red Sox a 3–1 series victory.[141][142][143]

Red Sox won the series 3–1 (22–16 runs)

April 22–24, vs. Seattle Mariners

[edit]

The Mariners came to Fenway Park and placed Bryce Miller on the mound to oppose Boston's Brayan Bello, who returned from the 15-day injured list to make his first start of the season. While he pitched just 5 innings, Bello showed little signs of rust, posting a one-run, four-hit, three-strikeout scoreline. The lone run Bello surrendered was a Jorge Polanco solo homer to center field in the top 1st. Rafael Devers summarily answered the Polanco long ball with an RBI sac fly in the bottom 1st that scored Jarren Duran. In the 3rd, the Sox took the lead on another timely hit from Alex Bregman, who doubled to left to score Ceddanne Rafaela. In the bottom 5th, Bregman scored again, putting the Red Sox up by three with a 2-RBI double to deep center that scored Devers and Rafaela. Seattle inched to within a run in the top of the 6th, as J. P. Crawford's center field single scored two Mariners. In the bottom 7th, however, Boston would break the game open. A four-run inning began with Triston Casas's second home run of the season – Casas stroked a pitch from Trent Thornton over the center field wall to score three runs, bringing home Kristian Campbell and Wilyer Abreu along with himself. Duran provided additional insurance later in the inning when he singled and then advanced to second base on an error, scoring Carlos Narváez. The back end of the bullpen was lights out for Boston, as the Red Sox benefited from two shutout innings from Garrett Whitlock and a shutout top of the 9th from Liam Hendriks, who shut the door on the Mariners for an 8–3 victory. Although not an official save situation, Hendriks' one-two-three 9th was a nice rebound from his shaky first outing in his return from Tommy John surgery. Bello (1–0) was credited with the win and Miller (1–3) with the loss.

After winning six of seven games, the Red Sox were handed an 8–5 loss in the second game of the series against Seattle. Sean Newcomb's struggles continued – though he struck out eight Mariner batters in his five innings pitched, the Massachusetts native also allowed eight hits and four earned runs, walking two. Mitch Garver's RBI single in the top 1st got things going for the Mariners, and while Newcomb held Seattle scoreless in the 2nd and 3rd, Crawford took Newcomb deep for a 3-run bomb to center field in the top 4th, putting Boston in a 4–0 hole. Romy González provided the first Red Sox run in the bottom half of the inning when his single to right field scored Trevor Story. In the 5th, Devers hit into an RBI ground out that scored Rafaela, cutting the Seattle lead in half. The Mariners would strike for two runs apiece in the top 6th and top 7th, however. In the 6th, a throwing error and a fielding error from Sox reliever Brennan Bernardino allowed Dylan Moore to reach base and then advance to second, which scored Leo Rivas. Moore then scampered home himself when Crawford singled to left. In the 7th, Josh Winckowski was held responsible for the continued Mariner onslaught, as Ben Williamson singled to right field to score Randy Arozarena, and Crawford's single brought in Rowdy Tellez for his fourth RBI of the game. Now up 8–2, Boston did attempt a comeback, drawing to within three runs in the bottom of the 8th when Casas homered to right with two men (Bregman and Devers) on, making the score 8–5 at a stroke. Seattle closer Andrés Muñoz shut the Sox down in the 9th, however, for his eighth save of the season, leveling this series at a game apiece. The Mariners' starter was Emerson Hancock, who struck out seven Red Sox and allowed two runs and six hits over six innings.

With Garrett Crochet becoming a burgeoning ace for Boston, hopes were high heading into the rubber game of the series. However, the Mariners would find Crochet's weak spots on this day, tagging him for four earned runs in five hits and five walks – which was all the offense Seattle needed in their 4–3 win. The M's got to Crochet early, Garver belting a pitch to deep center field for a 2-RBI double in the top of the 1st, scoring Arozarena and Moore. The Red Sox got a run back quickly in the bottom of the 1st, as Bregman took Seattle starter Bryan Woo deep for a solo shot to center, halving the Mariner lead. Up 2–1, however, Seattle continued to expose Crochet in the 2nd, with Moore carrying a fly ball deep enough to score Williamson. Rodríguez then scored Leo Rivas on an RBI ground out, putting the Mariners up 4–1. To Crochet's credit, he recovered for the rest of his outing, striking out nine Seattle hitters in total through five innings of work. But the damage had been done, and Woo was simply better, lasting six frames and only giving up two Boston runs and three hits while fanning eight Red Sox. Bregman struck again for the Red Sox in the bottom of the 3rd, driving in Duran. Narváez pulled the Sox to within a run in the 8th with his second home run of the season, a crack to right field off of Seattle reliever Gabe Speier. However, Muñoz was again effective in a save situation, striking out two Sox to shut the door on a 4–3 Mariners victory and a 2–1 series win for Seattle, with the Red Sox hoping to regroup as they head out on the road.

Red Sox lost the series 1–2 (15–16 runs)
