The Boston Red Sox just went absolutely OFF, hanging an 11-1 beatdown on the Arizona Diamondbacks on August 17. Get this: *every single Red Sox starter* recorded an RBI in that blowout. Talk about everyone showing up!
The Bats Went Wild
Boston pulled ahead early and never let up. Adley Rutschman, who’d been in a slump, finally broke out with an RBI double after reaching base on a silly error. Ceddy Rafaela was crushing it too, smashing three doubles. And Willson Contreras? Yeah, he went yard, adding to the absolute barrage.
Bello Dealing, D-Backs Fading
On the mound, Brayan Bello was dealing, putting in 4.2 innings of work, only giving up one run, and striking out three D-Backs hitters. It was 9-1 by the 6th inning, a total runaway. Arizona star Ketel Marte apparently “didn’t show up” to the game, but honestly? It wouldn’t have even mattered. The Sox were just that dominant, closing it out 11-1.
What a performance. It was inspiring to see that kind of team effort, with every single guy contributing an RBI. As Maria Menounos said when the Sox were up big, “God is blessing this game.” That kind of feeling, that kind of win, you just gotta soak it all in.
