Wong, Duran Propel Red Sox to 9-1 Victory over Guardians
On Saturday, the Boston Red Sox defeated the Cleveland Guardians 9-1 at Progressive Field, evening the three-game series at 1-1.
Starter Sonny Gray allowed one run over six innings, while Jarren Duran and Wong drove in three runs apiece to power a six-run ninth inning.
Officials overturned Wong's sixth-inning hit from a home run to an RBI double after review, but the Guardians committed a season-high four errors that hampered their defense.
Interim manager Chad Tracy deployed a heavily right-handed lineup against Guardians rookie left-hander Parker Messick to address roster injuries and offensive struggles.
Sunday's series finale features Boston Red Sox left-hander Ranger Suarez facing Cleveland Guardians right-hander Tanner Bibee, with the Red Sox aiming to improve their 24-33 record.
