Red Sox Earn 12-7 Win Against Guardians
The 12-7 Boston win over Cleveland was due largely to Brendan Donovan. The Red Sox second baseman was 3-6 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks, while scoring 3 and driving in 3. The victory makes Boston 10-14.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Alex Verdugo? The 27-year old right fielder Verdugo stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the 14th inning to put Boston up, 8-7. For the game, he was 4 for 7, including 2 doubles and 2 singles.

Verdugo said afterward that he hoped the win would galvanize the team.
