The Texas Rangers scored a robust six runs while the Boston Red Sox tallied just one run.
One inning into Bret Boone’s time as hitting instructor and Joc Pederson already had a hit and the Rangers already had a lead.
Either these guys weren’t a big fan of Donnie Ecker by the ignominious end to his tenure or he’s sitting at home right now sporting a wry smile, shaking his head at what transpired tonight at Fenway Park.
After an entire season of misfortune at the dish — levels of lack of offense that got Ecker canned before the start of this road trip — the Rangers put up six runs on 16 hits, including a five-run fourth inning that had ‘em doing a conga line around the bases like they were the Gas-House Gorillas.
