Red Sox
WEST SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) --- Brian Serven hit his first major league home
run in almost four years and Gage Jump pitched six scoreless innings as the
Athletics cooled off the Boston Red Sox with a 4-3 victory Tuesday night.
Tommy White went 4 for 4 and scored twice for the A's, who had lost three
straight and five of six. Henry Bolte had an early RBI single, and pinch-hitter
Lawrence Butler provided a critical insurance run with an RBI double in the
eighth.
Connor Wong launched a two-run homer with two outs in the ninth for the Red
Sox, who had won 18 of 20.
Batting ninth, Serven gave the Athletics a 3-0 lead with a two-run drive to
center field in the seventh that chased starter Jake Bennett (6-4). It was his
seventh career homer and first since Aug. 21, 2022, for the Colorado Rockies
against San Francisco.
