Win Makes Red Sox 29-27
The Boston Red Sox downed the Houston Astros, 11-4, at Minute Maid Park. Ceddanne Rafaela led the way, going 2-for-4 for Boston. The loss makes Houston 30-26.

Boston used a well-timed hit by Jarren Duran to capture the win. The center fielder socked a 2-run double in the top of the second inning to put the Red Sox ahead, 3-0. Though it was his only hit in 5 at-bats, it was important.

Boston manager Alex Cora was pleased with the team's effort. "Our guys went out there and put good wood on the ball," he said.
