Overall, the team accumulated twelve hits throughout the game.

On the pitching side, Boston's bullpen played a crucial role in maintaining their lead. The relievers held strong against Toronto's batters, allowing only one hit over 3.1 innings pitched and achieving an impressive earned run average (ERA) of 0.0 during this period.
