The Boston Red Sox have reached a three-year contract extension with manager Alex Cora through the 2027 season, it was announced Wednesday.

The deal to end his lame-duck status will keep him in Boston for a total of $21.75 million, sources told ESPN.

Cora, 48, has helped shepherd the Red Sox to a surprising 54-46 record. Boston entered Wednesday only one game behind the Kansas City Royals (56-46) for the final American League wild-card spot.
