Refsnyder Homers in Return From IL, Red Sox Sweep Orioles with 3-2 Win
The Red Sox achieved their first four-game sweep of the Orioles since 2018, concluding a 7-1 road trip and improving to a season-high 15 games over .500, manager Alex Cora said.
- The Boston Red Sox completed a four-game sweep of the Baltimore Orioles on August 28, 2025, winning 3-2 in Baltimore to finish a 7-1 road trip.
- This sweep followed a difficult start to the trip, as the Red Sox began with a 27-34 away record and needed to improve their postseason chances quickly.
- Key contributions included Trevor Story's solo homer in the first inning, Rob Refsnyder's fourth-inning home run in his return from injury, and Romy Gonzalez's go-ahead RBI single in the eighth inning.
- Garrett Crochet pitched six innings, giving up two runs and striking out seven, which increased his total strikeouts to 214—more than any other pitcher in the majors this season—while Steven Matz earned his second save by closing out the ninth inning.
- The sweep improved Boston's record to 75-60 and bolstered their AL Wild Card lead over the Yankees, setting up a home series opener against Pittsburgh for which no starter has been announced yet.
