Red Sox face Marlins leading series 1-0

Troy Johnston and Agustin Ramirez each hit home runs, but the Miami Marlins lost their third game in a row on Saturday in Boston.
BOSTON (AP) — Trevor Story hit a three-run homer, and the Boston Red Sox held off the Miami Marlins for a 7-5 victory on Saturday. Roman Anthony and Alex Bregman — Boston’s first two hitters — each had two hits as the Red Sox improved to 41-22 at Fenway Park. Brayan Bello (9-6) allowed two runs and four hits in 6 1/3 innings.
As a team, the Red Sox lead the major leagues in doubles. Anthony had one in the third inning Saturday, and it was of the hustle variety as the outfielder thought about stretching a line drive to the right-center gap as soon as he made contact. It was his 17th of the season.
Douglas alum Roman Anthony scored both runs to help the Boston Red Sox beat the Miami Marlins on Friday night.
