First Inning


The game began with both teams showing strong defensive plays. The Marlins were unable to score, recording no hits and no errors. Meanwhile, the Red Sox took an early lead by scoring 2 runs on 3 hits, setting a competitive tone for the rest of the match.


Third Inning


As action continued into the third inning, Boston extended their lead significantly by adding another 4 runs from just as many hits. The Fish managed only one hit during this period but remained determined to close the gap.


Fifth Inning


In an attempt to rally back into contention, Miami's offense finally broke through in the fifth inning when they scored their first run of the game on one hit. Despite this effort, Boston responded quickly with another run in their half of this inning.


Seventh Inning


The seventh inning saw Miami narrowing Boston's lead slightly as they added another run from two hits. However, solid pitching from both sides kept further scoring opportunities limited during these middle innings.


Ninth Inning


A dramatic ninth inning unfolded as Miami mounted a late comeback attempt with three runs scored on four hits. Notably contributing was Agustín Ramírez who had been consistent throughout previous games and continued his form here. Despite these efforts and closing within two runs of tying up against Boston’s total scoreline – it ultimately wasn’t enough for victory over 'Red Sox Nation'.
