Justin Turner had a good day on Saturday. It was made even better by the fans.
The Red Sox’ first baseman and designated hitter went 2-for-5 in the first game of Saturday’s doubleheader against the Rays, hitting a three-run double in the sixth that drove in the go-ahead run in the win.
Turner’s impressive performance came in the midst of a chilly drizzle at Fenway Park on Saturday. Despite the conditions though, Turner enjoyed the atmosphere at the ballpark, and it’s why he’s enjoyed the first couple of months of his Red Sox tenure more than he’d thought he would.
