Red Sox win 19 inning marathon at Fenway

September 6, 2017

It took six hours, but it was worth it for the Boston Red Sox. 

The Red Sox defeated the Blue Jays 3-2 in 19 innings at Fenway Park when Hanley Ramirez hit a bloop single that scored Mookie Betts.

The Red Sox sent the game to extra innings when they scored two runs in the bottom of the ninth inning. 

The Red Sox bullpen pitched 13 scoreless innings. Carson Smith pitched a scoreless 18th inning. It was Smith’s first appearance after Tommy John surgery. 

It is the second longest game in Fenway Park history.
