Red Sox 9, Braves 4: Finally

In a lot of ways, Tuesday’s Red Sox game in Atlanta was a typical one for them. Their offense showed some life early, but then didn’t get it going for a long time after that. The starting pitcher, meanwhile, was able to mostly keep runs off the board but didn’t go very deep. The difference this time around was the inning with life ended up with six runs instead of the typical one or two, with Rafael Devers smacking a big grand slam, and then they actually added on more with a three-run ninth. It wasn’t the best night for Garrett Whitlock, but these are the nights when the offense is supposed to pick up the slack.
