Red Sox Fall to A’s 4-3 [VIDEO]
The Boston Red Sox's 3-game winning streak was snapped Friday afternoon as the Oakland A's beat Boston 4-3 at Fenway Park. The Red Sox were trailing 4-1 after 7 innings and added 2 runs in the bottom of the 8th but just couldn't push the tying run across the plate.
Rich Hill started for Boston and went 5.2 innings allowing 7 hits and 4 runs, 3 of which were earned. He struck out 4 but didn't walk a batter. Hill's record falls to 2-4.
Hirokazu Sawamura, Ryan Brasier, Hansel Robles and Tyler Danish combined to hold Oakland scoreless over the 3.1 innings, allowing just 1 hit.
JD Martinez was 3-5 with a run batted in, although the A's intentionally walked Rafael Devers to load the bases to face Martinez, who grounded out.
Devers was 0-2, walking twice and reached a 3rd time after being hit by a pitch. He made a fantastic play at 3rd in the 6th innning.
Xander Bogaerts was 1-5 with a run batted in.
Jarren Duran leading off was 2-3 including a bunt single and double and made a great play at the Green Monster in the 4th inning
Rob Refsnyder pinch hit it the 8th inning. It was his 2nd pinch hit of the year.
