Red Sox Beat the A's 4-2 on Monasterio's 2-Run Homer in 10th

Monasterio’s two-run shot capped Boston’s comeback after the Red Sox stranded 13 runners and improved to 19-4 in July, the Associated Press said.

  • On Wednesday, July 29, shortstop Andruw Monasterio hit a 428-foot, two-run home run in the 10th inning to lift the Boston Red Sox past the Athletics 4-2 in West Sacramento.
  • Boston's bullpen, which leads the majors with a 3.03 ERA, anchored the victory by holding the Athletics scoreless for five innings during a stretch where the Red Sox are 19-4 in July.
  • Reliever Aroldis Chapman earned the victory in his 900th career appearance, while closer Greg Weissert retired the side in the 10th to secure the win after Monasterio's decisive blast.
  • This victory marked Boston's 19th win in July and extended their remarkable stretch to 27 wins in their last 34 games, reinforcing their playoff credentials.
  • The Red Sox travel to Los Angeles on Friday for a three-game weekend series against the Dodgers, testing their momentum against elite competition as they continue their playoff push.
