Sox at the Dish: For the 2nd time in the Series, Roman Anthony led off the game with a Home Run. He did it for the 1st time in his career on Monday night's opener. The Sox were shutout down by Roansy Contreras, who ended up working 4.1 scoreless innings out of the bullpen. Sox chased him from the game in the 8th with Connor Wong reaching with a leadoff walk and going 1st to 3rd on a Single from David Hamilton. Both would be left stranded with Keegan Akin striking out Roman Anthony and Alex Bregman and getting Trevor Story on a fielder's choice groundout. It set up the drama and heroics from Rafaela in the 9th. It was his 15th of the season and 1st since he homered against the Rays on July 13.
