Royce Lewis’ two-out single forced Cora to call upon his closer after all. Chapman, who exited Sunday’s Dodgers finale with back spasms, picked up his 19th save after just three pitches, as ’24 Red Sox rookie Mickey Gasper went down swinging.

Jarren Duran singled, doubled, homered, drove in four runs and scored three for the visiting Boston Red Sox in a 13-1 win against the Minnesota Twins on Wednesday afternoon in Minneapolis.

It got ugly to the point that Boston was hitting homers off 52 mph pitches from Kody Clemens in the ninth inning.
