Right-hander Michael Fulmer cruised through six innings before getting counterpunched by a powerful Boston lineup in the seventh and eighth, but the rookie limited Boston to seven hits and three runs over 7 2/3 innings.
Though the Red Sox battled back, it wasn't enough steam. Xander Bogaerts crushed a homer into the Green Monster seats to bring Boston within one in the seventh, and Mookie Betts added a game-tying RBI triple into deep center field an inning later.
