Baltimore. The Boston Red Sox scored ten ninth-inning runs to defeat the Baltimore Orioles 17-1 on Saturday, April 25, 2026, after Andruw Monasterio hit a grand slam. Willson Contreras hit a three-run homer and Caleb Durbin a two-run shot in the ninth; Garrett Crochet started and completed six shutout innings. Following the late rally, the Red Sox snapped a four-game losing streak and improved their run differential. Orioles starter Trevor Rogers allowed three runs in 1 2/3 innings and reliever Keegan Akin was removed in his season debut; team pitching and bullpen usage are immediate issues to address this week as managers assess rotations.
