That's all for now, fans.

Thanks for following today's #RedSox action with @RSNStats.

Enjoy your Saturday evening.

An out from a loss, #RedSox tied it up to make this one interesting, but then couldn't seal the deal. Officiating played a role, certainly, but so too did poor challenge decisions, myriad strikeouts, an inability to advance runners. Tomorrow, a chance to win this series, all the same.
15 batter strikeouts for #RedSox in today's game, 10 of which came in the 7th inning or later. BOS had 470 such strikeouts in 2025, 7th-most in American League. #Angels had the most such SO in #MLB (532), AL-champion #BlueJays had the fewest (349).
#RedSox Manager Cora on running out challenges early in today's game: "We learned a lot today." Says, "We'll talk to the players,…we just got to know the situation…we've been talking about it the whole spring."
#RedSox Manager Alex Cora on reliever Ryan Watson's #MLB debut today: "He was amazing. He was really good." Says, "He was trending in the right direction towards the end of camp, the velocity and the movement of his pitches were playing, and he saved us today."
Time of the game: 3 hours, 32 minutes before a crowd of 38,298 fans (87% venue capacity) who saw #Reds beat #RedSox, 6-5 to even this 3-game series.

#RedSox were 2-for-14 with runners in scoring position in this one, left 11 on.

#Reds were 3-for-16 with RISP, left 14 runners on base. #MLB
