Connelly Early struck out eight and allowed four hits as Boston ended Tampa Bay’s seven-game winning streak with solo homers from Wilyer Abreu and Ceddanne Rafaela.
- On Friday, the Red Sox snapped the Tampa Bay Rays' 7-game win streak with a 2-0 victory at Fenway Park, marking the second time in three games Boston won despite recording only four hits.
