Arroyo’s 5 Hits, 4 RBIs Keys Red Sox 10-4 Win Over Twins Tuesday

Reyes was a late scratch because of abdominal soreness. Arroyo had a double, and a solo home run, his 3rd of the season.

Adam Duvall hit his 5th homer in the 4th inning.

Masataka Yoshida went 3-5 and hit his 8th homer of the season in the 8th inning.

Justin Turner was 2-3 with his 16th double of the season.

Kutter Crawford cruised through 5.0 innings to pick up the win and is now 2-3 on the season. He struck out 6, and allowed 6 hits, but no runs.

Brennan Bernadino pitched a scoreless 6th inning, striking out 2 and walking 1.

Corey Kluber was brought in to pitch the final 3 innings. with Boston leading 8-0. He gave up 3 home runs and 4 runs on 5 hits to pick up an ugly save.

Boston is now 39-35 and a half game out of being out of last place. They are also just 1.5 games out of the 3rd and final wild card spot.
