Red Sox's Recent Performance


In their last outing against the Kansas City Royals on May 9, the Red Sox displayed resilience despite falling short in a tightly contested game that extended into extra innings. The pitching staff was commendable, holding the Royals to just two runs over 12 innings. This performance highlighted Boston's ability to maintain pressure and keep games within reach even when offensive production is limited.

In that game, they managed five runs with strategic hitting and solid pitching from both starters and relievers. This balance between offense and defense will be crucial as they face off against a formidable Braves lineup.
