On Friday night, the Boston Red Sox beat the Baltimore Orioles 12-10 in a thrilling game. Masataka Yoshida led the way for Boston, hitting a powerful three-run home run during a four-run burst in the fourth inning.
Rafael Devers, Jarren Duran, and David Hamilton also hit home runs, helping the Red Sox break their two-game losing streak. Yoshida and Duran each had three hits, with Yoshida driving in four runs and Duran scoring three times. In total, Boston managed 14 hits.
Despite their strong offense, the Orioles came up short. Ramon Urias had a great night, going 3-for-3 with a two-run home run and finishing with five RBIs. Jackson Holliday added four hits to Baltimore’s total of 17, but it wasn’t enough to secure the win. The loss pushed the Orioles a game behind the American League East-leading New York Yankees.
Baltimore’s star pitcher, Corbin Burnes, had a tough outing. The All-Star struggled, allowing eight runs on 10 hits over just four innings. He also walked three batters, though he did strike out seven.
The Red Sox’s explosive offense proved too much for the Orioles, as Boston secured an important win on the road.
