Kyle Wright’s worst start of the season and a terrible relief stint from Tyler Thornburg combined to help spell defeat for the Braves on this night. The Red Sox scored six runs in the second inning and then added three more in the ninth to pick up a 9-4 win over Atlanta.
The first inning of this game actually went swimmingly on the mound for Kyle Wright, as he sat down the Red Sox in order on nine pitches. Meanwhile, the Braves had a scoring opportunity in the first inning as Ronald Acuña Jr. found himself at third base with just one out.
