Red Sox Scores: August 1, 2017
Game No. 108
Tuesday night’s game was a wacky, back-and-forth one chock full of dramatic plays. Indians’ outfielder Austin Jackson made an incredible leap into the Red Sox bullpen to rob Hanley Ramírez of a home run in the fifth inning. Later, with two outs in the bottom of the ninth, Boston catcher Christian Vázquez blasted a three-run home run over Jackson’s head to walk off with the win and recapture first place in the division.

For every Red Sox game this season, @Amy Parker and I are visualizing the final score. Our ground rules: scores must be posted before the first pitch of the next game and must represent the final score. Home games are on a white background, away games on black, and the Red Sox are always red. Follow the whole project here or get weekly recaps in your inbox.
