2026 Red Sox: injuries, record-breaking turnaround and surge

Overview

Following a 4-2 victory over the Miami Marlins on Aug. 25, where Anthony Seigler drove in the winning run, the Red Sox extended their momentum with an 11th-inning 7-3 win. This victory was fueled by a 412-foot grand slam from Jarren Duran. During this stretch, Mickey Gasper recorded his first career two-homer game, and Aroldis Chapman secured his 30th save of the season, joining Mariano Rivera as one of a select group of Latin American pitchers to reach that milestone. However, the Red Sox's five-game winning streak ended on Aug. 26 when the Marlins defeated Boston 4-0 at loanDepot Park to avoid a series sweep. The loss was marked by four defensive errors from Boston and a pitching performance by Ryan Gusto that limited the Red Sox to four hits. Sonny Gray allowed two runs over five innings in the shutout loss. During this period, catcher Audley Rutschman missed his second consecutive game due to right elbow irritation, while outfielder Roman Anthony continued his rehab assignment with Triple-A Worcester following a finger injury sustained in May. On Aug. 28 and 29, the Red Sox defeated the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium to even the series. Wilyer Abreu provided early momentum with a solo home run in the first inning, and Boston added four more runs in the ninth inning against Ryan Yarbrough. Jake Bennett earned the win after pitching six scoreless innings with seven strikeouts. On Aug. 31, the Red Sox split a three-game series against the Seattle Mariners at Fenway Park. After losing the opener 9-6 due to a struggling performance by rookie starter Jedixson Paez, Boston rallied in the final game.
