""It was good to put the ball in play there, get that double, especially to start a rally. We talk about bringing the energy no matter what happens, we talk about fighting every at-bat ... We're not looking to hit homers, we're looking to put the ball in play and then do damage.""
""I think we have to start, at some point, putting the ball in play more. We did in the ninth, and it worked out.""
The Boston Red Sox achieved a significant offensive performance by scoring five runs in the ninth inning against the Cardinals, winning 7-1. Every player in the lineup reached base, with only two players failing to get a hit. Willson Contreras contributed significantly with 3 RBIs, emphasizing the team's focus on putting the ball in play rather than hitting home runs. Caleb Durbin, Jarren Duran, and Ceddanne Rafaela also added to the team's scoring. Despite a challenging start to the season, Boston has won three of its last four games.
