The Sox rally from a 5-0 deficit to beat Seattle May 21, 2022 ... Rafael Devers hit two homers, Christian Vázquez had a tiebreaking single in the eighth inning and Sox bullpen held the Seattle Mariners scoreless for six innings, lifting the Red Sox to a 6-5 victory. Devers drove in three runs and had three hits for the Red Sox, who posted their season-high fourth straight win. With the game tied at 5-5, Franchy Cordero tripled off Drew Steckenrider in the eighth and the ball took a crazy carom off the Green Monster scoreboard away from center fielder Julio Rodríguez. Vázquez then followed with his single off the left-field wall. The Red Sox erased a 5-0 deficit by scoring a run in the third on Devers’ homer over Sox bullpen and four in the fifth inning when they chased starter Chris Flexen. Devers second homer went into the first row of the Monster Seats after Kike Hernández opened the fifth with a double. Bobby Dalbec had an RBI bloop single off reliever Sergio Romo before Trevor Story’s sacrifice fly tied it. The Mariners had jumped on Boston starter Garrett Whitlock for four runs and six hits in the top of the first. After both teams put up five runs in the first five innings, it became a battle of effective bullpens. John Schreiber pitched a perfect eighth for the victory and Matt Barnes got the final three outs for his second save, while center fielder Hernández made a nice over-the-shoulder catch on Ty France’s drive to end the game. |
