Martin Perez, who finished 3rd in the AL in innings pitched with 211.1 in 2023, had a strong outing for the St. Louis Cardinals against the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park. The left-hander was a big part of his team's 3-2 win. In 6.2 innings, Perez surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 0. He allowed 2 runs. David Robertson earned the save, his 4th.

Jeremy Pena had a direct impact on the outcome. Pena contributed a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put St. Louis up, 2-0.

"I liked his command," said St. Louis manager Jason B. "Martin was throwing strikes."

The win gives St. Louis a record of 5-3.
