Red Sox 6, Marlins 5 F/12: Fireworks on the Fourth
A Canadian starting on American Independence Day. What could go wrong? An absolute tale of two games for the Boston Red Sox from Miami:
Key Moments
B1-B7: Pivetta Dominates
What an incredibly dominant and necessary start from Nick Pivetta. 6 2⁄3 no-hit frames, seven in all, and for most of this game, it felt like there was nothing the Marlins could do to get on the board.
B8: Blown Lead
And then the Marlins got on the board. Two walks and a wild pitch by Justin Slaten sets up Brennan Bernardino to bring both runners home and not only tie the game, but waste Pivetta’s special start and leave him with a no decision. Brutal.
B9: Savers
