Big Day for Acuna Jr. as Red Sox Down Astros, 6-5
|
The Boston Red Sox defeated the Houston Astros, 6-5. Doing his part was right fielder Ronald Acuna Jr., who went 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 4 runs. Boston reliever Emmanuel Clase picked up the win, upping his record to 4-1. Shawn Armstrong absorbed the loss. Boston is now 26-8, 7 games up in the American League Northeast Division.
The outcome might have been different for Boston, had it not been for Bobby Witt Jr., the 23-year old shortstop . Witt Jr. stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put Boston up, 6-5. For the game, he was 3 for 5, including 1 double and 2 singles.
"We'll savor this win," Witt Jr. told the Boston Herald, "then get ready for the next game."
