The Boston Red Sox failed in their bid for a second winning streak of 10 or more games in the same season, losing to the Athletics 7-3 on Saturday. The Red Sox had previously recorded a franchise record-tying 15-game winning stretch before it was stopped on July 22.
Gage Jump worked six strong innings for the Athletics, striking out a season-high 11 and allowing two runs and six hits. Tyler Soderstrom and Henry Bolte hit solo homers, and Jonah Heim and Donovan Walton added two-run doubles for the Athletics.
The Red Sox were led by Andruw Monasterio, who had a two-run single in the first inning. However, the team was unable to overcome the Athletics’ strong pitching and hitting.
