The game saw the Red Sox amassing a total of 12 hits and capitalizing on their opportunities to score seven runs. Despite committing one error, their performance was strong enough to secure the win.

Brayan Bello, starting pitcher for the Red Sox, played a pivotal role in this victory by showcasing his skills over 6.2 innings pitched.

Offensively, Masataka Yoshida and Tyler O'Neill stood out by each recording a batting average of .500 during this match-up against Miami. Yoshida drove in two crucial runs for his team while O'Neill demonstrated his ability to get on base consistently.


The Marlins tried to mount a challenge early on by scoring one run in the first inning but struggled to maintain momentum against Boston's pitchers. They managed nine hits throughout but could only convert these into two runs due partly to Boston's effective pitching staff that maintained a combined ERA of just over one across all innings pitched.
