NOMAR MAZARA |
THE BEST RED SOX TEAM EVAH! ...
Nomar Mazara's 5 RBIs beat the Sox
May 3, 2018 ...
Nomar
Mazara drove in five runs while homering in
his third straight game and the Rangers beat the Red
Sox 11-5, handing
David Price his
third loss in a row. Mazara had a two-run double off Price (2-4) in the third, and an inning
later hit a towering three-run homer as the first batter after the Red Sox lefty
was pulled from the game. Mazara’s sixth homer gave Texas a 10-3 lead.
Mookie Betts homered
again for the Sox, his MLB-leading 12th homer in the third coming a day after he
went deep three times at Fenway Park against Kansas City. Betts also had a
two-run double and a sacrifice fly as the Red Sox opened an 11-day, 10-game
trip.
Mike Minor (3-1),
a full-time reliever for the Royals last year after missing two full seasons
with shoulder issues, worked six innings. He struck out four, walked three and
allowed three runs.
Price allowed nine runs. He has been scored on 19 times (16 earned runs)
over 17 innings during his three-game losing streak. The last batter Price faced
was rookie Isiah
Kiner-Falefa, who came back from a 1-2 count to draw a
bases-loaded walk . Hector
Velazquez, the reliever, immediately threw a wild pitch
to allow a run before Mazara homered. |
