Duffy Excels, But Red Sox Win
Texas third baseman Matt Duffy was sensational. He was 3 for 4 with a home run and a double, while scoring 3 times and driving in 3, but it wasn't enough to rally his team to a win. Boston beat the Rangers, 12-10. Boston reliever Martin Perez picked up the win, upping his record to 3-2. Luis Garcia absorbed the loss. Getting the save was Matt Barnes, his 11th.

The Red Sox grabbed the lead in the bottom of the second. With one out, Alex Verdugo hit a grand slam home run off Kyle Gibson, putting Boston in front, 7-2. For Verdugo, it was his 2nd home run of the season.

Verdugo told the Boston Times: "Don't care what other people think. Alex knows who Alex is."

Boston now has a record of 20-15 with the win.
