Talking Points: Familiar Red Sox bullpen woes

Share

STAR OF THE GAME: Jose Uribe
The well-traveled infielder smacked a booming double to center in the sixth to drive in two-runs and wipe out a one-run Red Sox lead.

HONORABLE MENTION: Michael Cuddyer
Though he played a blooper by Mookie Betts into a triple in left, he did contribute three hits, two runs and an RBI - the latter of which was the difference in the game.

GOAT OF THE GAME: Red Sox bullpen
Together, Robbie Ross Jr. and Heath Hembree took a game with the score tied and handed the Mets a one-run lead in the bottom of the seventh.

TURNING POINT: With one out in the bottom of the seventh, Ross issued a walk to David Wright. Wright was then erased on a fielder's choice, but Daniel Murphy, who reached when Wright was forced, came around to score the go-ahead run when Michael Cuddyer singled off Hembree.

BY THE NUMBERS: David Ortiz's fielding error at first base in the fourth was his first at first base in the past 33 games.
