Alex Verdugo

Alex Verdugo delivered a clutch two-run single in the bottom of the ninth inning to lift the Red Sox over the Blue Jays, 4-3. The go-ahead hit came off Toronto reliever Jordan Romano, capping a dramatic comeback after Boston trailed by two runs in the eighth. Verdugo's RBI single scored Trevor Story, who had tied the game with a solo homer in the ninth, and Jarren Duran, who reached on a fielder's choice. Boston's bullpen allowed three runs in the eighth but held on for the win, improving their record to 10-5 on the season.
