Headline

Sogard's solo homer starts Red Sox rally in 5-4 win over Giants

BOSTON -- Nick Sogard hit his second career homer, Jake Bennett struck out six in seven innings and the Boston Red Sox came back to finish a sweep of the San Francisco Giants with a 5-4 win on Sunday.

The Sox finished their homestand 5-1. They are 7-3 since a five-game skid that matched their season high.

After the Giants took an early 3-0 lead capped by Jonah Cox 's solo homer in the second, Sogard blasted a 3-2 fastball from Matt Wilkinson (0-1) 415 feet over the Green Monster to cut into the deficit.

Ceddanne Rafaela drove in another in the third, and Connor Wong tied the game with an RBI double. Mickey Gasper gave the Red Sox the lead with a double of his own, and Rafaela added an insurance run with a single.

Bennett (8-6) allowed four runs (three earned) on seven hits and walked one.

The Giants made it a one-run game after Christian Koss hit a true Little League homer , with the Little League World Series ongoing in Williamsport, Pennsylvania.

He reached safely on a throwing error by Andruw Monasterio that got past Willson Contreras , rounded second and saw a throw from Wilyer Abreu sail over third base and into a camera well, allowing him to score.

Tyson Guerrero threw a scoreless eighth, and Aroldis Chapman earned his 29th save.

Willy Adames and Victor Bericoto each left the game due to injuries. Adames departed due to a left elbow injury, and Bericoto with a right knee injury, the Giants said.

Up next

The Giants return home to host the Reds on Monday. RHP Chase Burns (14-2, 2.51 ERA) takes the hill for Cincinnati against Giants LHP Carson Whisenhunt (3-4, 7.03).

The Red Sox head to Miami for a three-game set with the Marlins. Boston LHP Ranger Suarez (5-3, 3.41 ERA) faces RHP Sandy Alcantara (13-8, 3.46) on Monday.
