In terms of team results, this was not a good weekend for the Red Sox after dropping two of three to the Yankees. But it was a weekend Jarren Duran will never forget, as he got his first career hit under his belt just one pitch in. And fortunately, his family was there to see it. (Alex Speier; Boston Globe)
Saturday’s game was a total mess, culminating in a fan throwing a baseball at Alex Verdugo. It was obviously something that can’t happen, but is unfortunately becoming a trend across sports. (John Tomase; NBC Sports Boston)
The fan who threw the ball at Verdugo is not going to be at any major-league games, well, ever again.
