His ERA when he entered the game was 1.53..
Duran continues to show his abilities with a nice HR. A shot to R-CF off a 95 mph FB was not something he had in his bag of tricks last year. Hope he gets an A-S selection as a reserve. Also hope he can take advantage of a few days off , if he doesn't get a trip. The season gets long in August dog days.
Zack Kelly actually is a Red Sox organization product and has been effective with a WHIP below 1.0 ( 0.99) , and a sub 2.00 ERA. Got past his elbow issues from 2023 to become a contributor this year
He only gave up 1 earned run in 10 appearances in June. The SOX BP is 2nd in the AL in ERA.
A win in the type of game the Sox should win. Good game, guys. SS rolls on !
Beat the bad teams like a drum and play .500 against the good ones should get a team in the PO's.
I know. I looked it up--in complete disbelief.
Indeed. I'm humbled.
He’s been terrific since he returned from the IL…
He played in the Sox minors, but he previously played in the minors for Oakland and the Angels. He was a successful dumpster dive…
Very satisfying win. Almsor everyone scored or knocked in a run.
Crawford put up some nice numbers. We need him back on track to keep this going.
When you say it's gonna happen now
When exactly do you mean?
That was Jarren Duran’s 100th hit and 10th HR of the season.
He is the first American League player ever to record all of the following before the All-Star break:
- 100 hits
- 10 triples
- 10 HR
- 20 stolen bases
The only NL player to do that is José Reyes (2008).

We need as close to 5 decent starters as we can get. Houck and Crawford are more than decent, but Pivetta, Winckowski, and especially Bello are suspect. The team ERA of 3.62, ranked 7th in MLB, is still better than the 2018 Sox who won 108 regular season games.
Sox pitching never nevertheless--and despite our griping (which I have done my share of)--remains their one real strength.
The defense, ranked dead last in MLB, and the hitting--ranked 12th in runs scored--remain suspect.
If you like ERA, Winckowski's is a glittering 2.80.
Championships since purchase by John Henry group: Red Sox 4 Yankees 1
The Red Sox are 8-1 in their last 9 postseason games against the Yankees.
