Durbin's is the lowest whiff rate for BOS this season.

95 pitches for #Angels rookie Ryan Johnson vs #RedSox tonight is a season high, topping 91 on July 19 vs #Tigers.

#RedSox Wilyer Abreu's home run would have left 16 of the 30 #MLB ballparks.

#Angels Christian Moore is caught stealing on a terrific throw for #RedSox catcher Mickey Gasper.

Back to back walks for #Angels light-hitting Christian Moore and Kyren Paris vs #RedSox pitching.
