BOSTON (AP) — Jake Arrieta struck out seven in seven strong innings and the Philadelphia Phillies snapped a four-game slide with a 3-1 win over the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday night.
Jorge Alfaro hit an RBI double in the second, Scott Kingery drove in a run with a sacrifice fly in the fourth and Carlos Santana added an RBI single for a key run in the ninth after Rhys Hoskins led off with a double.
That was all the offense the Phillies would need to earn a split in a two-game visit to Boston despite leaving 13 on base and going 1 for 8 with runners in scoring position.
