Wilyer Abreu’s standout performance, going 3-for-5 with a double, two RBI, and a run scored, played a pivotal role in the Boston Red Sox’s 6-1 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates. Despite an early 1-0 deficit, the Red Sox mounted a strong offensive display, scoring runs in multiple innings to secure the series sweep. Abreu’s consistent presence on the bases extended his streak of reaching base to 10 consecutive games, highlighting his impact on the team’s success. The bullpen, led by Justin Slaten, also played a crucial role, combining for scoreless, four-hit ball to maintain Boston’s lead. Ke’Bryan Hayes and Jack Suwinski provided sparks for the Pirates’ offense, but they were unable to overcome Boston’s strong performance.
