Kyler Tucker had a stellar night of two home runs and six RBIs as the Houston Astros edged the Boston Red Sox 13-4 on Tuesday night.
Author of a two-run slap in the second inning, Tucker contributed to an explosive nine-point inning for the visitors at the expense of starter Nathan Eovaldi.
The latter also left the mound after having recorded only five withdrawals in the game. Eovaldi conceded five long balls over the Green Monster before being taken out of the game.
Upon returning to the plate in the fourth inning, with the bases loaded, Tucker dispatched a Tyler Danish offering behind the right field fence at Fenway Park for his 7th home run of the campaign.
In this victory for the Astros, Michael Brantley also distinguished himself with a harvest of three RBIs.
Rafael Devers and JD Martinez each had three hits in the Sox’s loss, already their 22nd in 36 outings this season.
Houston added a 24th win to its record in 37 games.
