The Boston Red Sox trailed 2-0 early but Romy Gonzalez hit a solo home run in the bottom of the first inning. This moment energized the team, resulting in six unanswered runs over four innings. Gonzalez recorded two hits, two runs scored, and one RBI. Trevor Story contributed with a home run and three RBIs. Manager Alex Cora praised the team's adaptability and spirit, while they continue navigating their season's challenges despite earlier trade deadline disappointments.
Gonzalez's at-bat gave the Red Sox little time to dwell on the two-run homer Walker Buehler allowed at the top of the frame. And a reinvigorated Boston lineup rattled off six straight runs across four innings, leading to a 7-3 win at home over the Astros.
Gonzalez went 2-for-5 at the plate, scoring twice with one RBI. He wasn't the highlight offensively; Trevor Story also homered with three RBIs, going 2-for-4, and Abraham Toro hit a two-RBI home run of his own.
I think it's huge, being able to punch back immediately ... I think it got the boys going,
We're having fun. We're moving the pieces, trying to win as many games as possible, and I love the fact that people are enjoying this.
