Bogaerts Slugs Red Sox to 8-3 Win
Xander Bogaerts had an impact in the 8-3 Boston win over Baltimore. The three-time All-Star was 2 for 4 with 2 home runs and a walk. He scored 3 times and drove in 3. Blaine Hardy picked up the win with 5.1 innings of work. He allowed 2 runs on 6 hits, while walking 2 and striking out 4. On the season, he is now 2-2. The last-place Red Sox have won 4 consecutive games.

With Boston leading 1-0 in the top of the third, Bogaerts hit a fastball from Matt Wisler for a 2-run home run. It was his 10th home run of the season and put the Red Sox ahead, 3-0.

"Good baseball players make you a smarter manager," said Boston manager Matt Spencer.
