CLEVELAND -- Jarren Duran barely had time to catch his breath after tripling in the third inning. It didn't matter, he had already made up his mind to run again.
Duran pulled off Boston's first straight steal of home plate in exactly 16 years, scoring on the next pitch from Doug Nikhazy as the Red Sox beat the Cleveland Guardians 7-3 in the second game of a doubleheader Saturday.
"(Third base coach Kyle Hudson) heard him tell the umpire that he was working from the stretch, so I decided I was going to go on the first pitch," Duran said.
