Red Sox Scores: August 3, 2017

Game No. 109

Sox starter and reigning CY Young winner Rick Porcello earned a rare win on Thursday night, his first since June, to end his four-game losing streak. He had plenty of run support for a change, with Rafael Devers mashing a three-run homer in the first inning, Mookie Betts adding a two-run shot in the second, and Andrew Benintendi going 3-for-3 and reaching base five times.

For every Red Sox game this season, @Dan Perrera 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.
