It wasn't pretty, but the Red Sox bats finally woke up on Patriots' Day
""We walked a lot today, right? There was traffic. We ran the bases well. We put pressure on the opposition, and that's where we're at right now, right? Some good and some bad. ... So that's what it takes for us to score runs. We will maximize the roster.""
"Despite that offensive surge, the Red Sox' slump-busting salvo against Detroit wasn't the result of Boston's bats teeing off against pitches and sending them into the Monster seats on Monday."
The Boston Red Sox struggled offensively at the start of the 2026 season, hitting the fewest home runs in the American League and maintaining a low batting average. However, they broke out offensively against the Tigers, scoring eight runs in a game, their second-highest total of the season. The victory was characterized by a patient approach at the plate, with the team drawing eight walks and focusing on base running rather than relying on home runs.
