The Boston Red Sox beat the Orioles 5-3, marking the first game since Alex Cora was abruptly fired as manager. The win was the Red Sox's second consecutive win and marked interim manager Chad Tracy's first MLB victory and 500th career as a professional manager. Despite the off-field drama, the team still had a successful weekend, winning the series. The game was marked by several timely hits, including a two-run home run from Willson Contreras. The Red Sox also had four stolen bases on the day, their most in a single game so far. The team will now fly to Toronto for a third consecutive win.
