After a misplayed foul pop, Valenzuela hits go-ahead double in Blue Jays' 4-3 win over Red Sox
BOSTON -- Brandon Valenzuela hit a go-ahead RBI double off Aroldis Chapman with two outs in the ninth inning and the Toronto Blue Jays completed a three-game sweep of the Boston Red Sox with a 4-3 win Thursday.
Valenzuelas tiebreaking hit clanked off the Green Monster and came after Red Sox catcher Connor Wong misplayed a pop-up in foul territory that would have been the final out of the ninth.
Vladimir Guerrero Jr . and Nathan Lukes homered for Toronto, which has taken five of six matchups against Boston this season.
Trailing 3-1, the Red Sox tied it in the eighth on back-to-back homers by Isiah Kiner-Falefa and Caleb Durbin .
Tommy Nance (1-2) picked up the win after recording the final two outs in the eighth and Mason Fluharty pitched a perfect ninth for his first save of the season.
Chapman (0-2) took the loss as Boston fell to 12-25 at Fenway Park and 6-17 against AL East teams this season.
Guerrero jumped on the first pitch he saw from Red Sox starter Sonny Gray for a 410-foot homer that landed in the first row of the Green Monster seats. The first-inning blast was his fourth home run of the season and first since May 17.
Toronto starter Trey Yesavage carried a shutout into the seventh, but left with the game tied at 3. The right-hander struck out six and walked none while allowing three runs in 7 1/3 innings.
Gray allowed three runs including solo homers by Guerrero and Lukes and six hits over seven innings. The right-hander struck out seven and walked one.
Before the consecutive homers by Kiner-Falefa and Durbin in the eighth, the Red Sox snapped a 16-inning scoreless in the seventh when Wilson Contreras drove in Ceddanne Rafaela on a grounder.
