The Red Sox were all set to got run off the field tonight against the Braves on national television, pushing them to their fifth straight loss and a supremely disappointing 22-25 record on the year, until they weren\u2019t, and a stirring late comeback was capped off by a Rafael Devers walkoff dinger, leaving the team elated and one game under .500 headed into Sunday\u2019s rubber game. Giddyup!<\/p>\n

Three Studs<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Rafael Devers<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Not much to argue with here, as our DH walked it off with a donger for the first time in his career:<\/p>\n

Jarren Duran<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hit a homer, had the double to tie the game in the eighth, threw a Alex Fuckin\u2019 Verdugo out at home, stirred a seventh-inning rally and did all the things he\u2019s been doing for more than a full season now. This game would have been as dead as a doornail without him.<\/p>\n

Alex Bregman<\/strong><\/h3>\n

His two-run double helped stir the comeback, moving the score from 6-2 to 6-4.<\/p>\n

Three Duds<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Lucas Giolito<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We don\u2019t want to be that guy<\/strong>\/those guys<\/strong>, but it was very bad out there early, as Giolito gave up six runs over four innings, including three in the first.<\/p>\n

Kristian Campbell<\/strong><\/h3>\n

He went 0-4 and sometimes that just happens, even to our better players.<\/p>\n

Wilyer Abreu<\/strong><\/h3>\n

He went 0-4 and sometimes that just happens, even to our better players.<\/p>\n
