The Red Sox: - Have the AL’s 5th best record - Own MLB’s lowest ERA (2.52) - Rank 2nd in MLB in HR (29) - Are 4-1 in their last 5 games - Have a +18 run differential

Tonight, Triston Casas has hit the 35th home run and drawn the 100th walk of his career. He is only the 10th player ever to record at least 35 HR and 100 walks in their first 180 career games. Casas and Ted Williams are the only Red Sox to accomplish the feat.
Fewest career games to reach 35 HR, Red Sox history: Walt Dropo (1949-51) – 155 Tony Conigliaro (1964-65) – 159 Ted Williams (1939-40) – 177 Triston Casas (2022-24) – 180 Nomar Garciaparra (1996-98) – 180

Chris Murphy plays for something bigger than himself. He plays for Jessica: the driving force behind his motivation to make it to the big leagues.
Garrett Whitlock would like to welcome you to Deaf and Hard of Hearing Night at Fenway!
Masataka Yoshida is going to be very good for the Boston Red Sox this year.
Thanks to everyone for all the messages and prayers! I’m feeling very fortunate to come out of yesterday with no breaks & all my chiclets in tact. The @RedSox medical staff and @Lee_Health have been absolutely amazing & I’m going to be back out on the field as soon as possible!
One month post ventilator, @ChrisSnowCGY is back in the game. Never give up, friends. Never, ever give up. ❤️👊🏻🔥
The Red Sox are saddened by the passing of longtime employee Debbie Matson. She was kind, thoughtful, honest and loyal. She started with the organization in 1986 and her love for the Red Sox could be seen every day through her work. We send our condolences to the Matson family.
Sarah is one of the most special people in our business. A ray of sunshine every minute of every day. And amazingly, that hasn't changed even as she's gone through this difficult time. Please read her, follow her and root for her!
I make these for my son every night so when he wakes up, he can see what happened right away. Most have been painful to write this season. Not tonight. Sox.
One scene that stuck with me from the LL Classic. After his presser, and another tough loss, Alex Cora saw a kid in the concourse and started playing catch with him. Then he signed the kid's shirt, and said to him, "Keep having fun with your dad.". Nice moment to cap a long day.
