Despite the overall disappointment, standout performances from Jarren Duran and Garrett Crochet offered some bright spots. Crochet had a strong outing, striking out 11 batters, despite giving up an early homer. Duran’s contributions were vital in maintaining pressure on the Brewers, while Rafael Devers proved pivotal by scoring the Sox's only run, showcasing his importance in the lineup.
The Red Sox and Brewers played a game so tight in mediocrity that it came down to a Connor Wong at-bat with the bases loaded in the ninth inning.
Yes, he [Garrett Crochet] gave up a homer on the first pitch. No, he doesn't deserve to get hung out to dry like that. But sometimes it happens.
Jarren Duran put the Sox in a position to win and just continues to push the boundaries of what we can expect of him.
Rafael Devers was the lynchpin of the lineup, scoring the only run of the game after one of his two walks.
