Fine Effort by Acuna Jr. Not Enough in 9-6 Rays Loss
Despite a great performance by Tampa Bay designated hitter Ronald Acuna Jr., the Boston Red Sox defeated the Rays by the score of 9-6 at Fenway Park. Acuna Jr. hit 3 home runs, while adding 5 RBI and scoring three times. Jalen Beeks, now 1-1, picked up the win in relief. He allowed 1 run on no hits in 1.1 innings. Edwin Díaz picked up the save for Boston, his 9th of the year.

Seth Beer chipped in a 3-run home run for Boston in the bottom of the sixth. For the game, the first baseman had 3 hits in 4 at-bats with 2 home runs, 1 single, 2 runs scored, and 5 RBI.

"It was offense that won us the game," said winning manager Timothy Farmer.

The Red Sox go to 16-26 with the win.
