BOSTON – Will Brennan hit a two-run homer in the seventh inning, and the Cleveland Guardians dominated the Boston Red Sox 6-0 in the traditional Patriots Day game.
Jose Ramirez and Gabriel Arias added a productive double each for Cleveland, which has a resounding 8-2 record in opposing stadiums.
Wearing their yellow jerseys with the “Boston” lettering in red, inspired by the first game played with the bombing that occurred at the 2013 edition of the Boston Marathon, the Sox were limited to three short hits.
Outfielder Tyler O’Neill had to leave the game in the eighth inning after colliding hard with third baseman Rafael Devers when the two teammates were trying to catch a high ball in the infield.
“He has a major cut on his forehead,” manager Alex Cora revealed of O’Neill’s injury. “He had to have eight stitches. He will now go through the concussion protocol, hoping that everything returns to normal. »
Cora added that Devers told her he felt fine. However, he will also go through this same protocol.
“It’s hard to get the body going in time for an 11 a.m. game,” suggested Guardians manager Stephen Vogt.
Boston has been on the schedule at Fenway Park every year since 1959 on Patriots Day. The match takes place during the Marathon crossing in the Kenmore Square neighborhood, which is just behind the Green Monster, and about a mile from the finish line.
Former Pats star tight end Rob Gronkowski offered the ceremonial throw of the game, not without offering fans a “ spike » recalling his post-touchdown celebrations in the NFL.
Sox starter Kutter Crawford has nothing to be ashamed of for his part. He allowed just two hits in 5 2/3 innings, recording six strikeouts.
“A few of our guys are working slow right now [au bâton] », Analyzed Cora. “But we will get through this. »
