MILWAUKEE (AP) — Christian Yelich hit a grand slam in the 10th inning for his first career-walk-off homer, giving the Milwaukee Brewers a 5-1 win over the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday night.
With Joey Ortiz on at second, Brice Turang lined a four-seam fastball off Liam Hendriks (0-2) for a base hit that moved Ortiz to third. Jackson Chourio walked. One out later, Yelich drove a 1-1 pitch 400 feet over the wall in right-center.
Yelich had tied the game in the ninth inning with an opposite-field double off closer Aroldis Chapman and later scored on Sal Frelick’s base hit.
