Boston's Caleb Durbin lined a single to center field off Chicago's Erick Fedde in the 13th inning to score Nick Sogard, sparking a dramatic comeback win for the Red Sox over the White Sox. The game ultimately ended in a 12-11 Boston victory, capping off a thrilling contest that lasted over four hours.
The Red Sox were without first baseman Willson Contreras, who missed his second game due to illness. Meanwhile, White Sox catcher Joey Bart left the game in the seventh inning with a fifth metacarpal fracture in his left hand and will be evaluated.
Boston's offense came alive in the late innings, with several players contributing to the team's comeback. Connor Wong had a two-run home run, Anthony Siegler added three RBIs and scored a run, and Wilyer Abreu had two RBIs, including one to tie the game in the ninth.
The game was marked by a series of intense moments, with Chicago taking the lead in the 11th inning only to have Boston tie it again. The White Sox had been in control for much of the game, leading 7-6 in the ninth inning before Boston tied the game in four straight innings.
Chicago starter Luis Castillo was chased after four innings, allowing five runs off six hits and Wong's homer. The Red Sox also had their starting pitcher, Ranger Suarez, pulled after three innings due to a 42-pitch frame that allowed three runs off three hits.
In the end, it was the Red Sox who emerged victorious, with Brayan Bello working two innings for the win. The victory marked Boston's eighth straight win and 10th in 11 games, with the team also winning 10 consecutive series.
The Red Sox will look to continue their winning streak on Friday, with left-hander Payton Tolle set to start against the Athletics. The White Sox, meanwhile, will send left-hander Noah Schultz to the mound against the Cleveland Guardians.
