The Red Sox held off the Blue Jays for 7-6 win on Saturday
Rafael Devers had an early two-run homer and later added an RBI single as the Boston Red Sox fended off the Toronto Blue Jays 7-6 on Saturday.
Yusei Kikuchi had his worst outing in more than a month. He allowed five runs on seven hits and two walks, striking out seven over 4 2/3 innings. “Baseball is America’s pastime, right? That’s what everyone says. But to me baseball brings worlds together,” said Blue Jays manager John Schneider. “Just look at the diversity around the league, within every team.
Springer now has 56 leadoff home runs in his career, second in Major League Baseball history behind only Hall of Fame outfielder Rickey Henderson’s 81. Devers plated Turner again with his line drive in the next at bat to give Boston a 4-2 lead. That ended Kikuchi’s outing, with the left-hander allowing the most runs in a start since giving up five in a 7-3 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays on May 24.
