Baltimore led 2-0 entering the first inning before Xander Bogaerts and J.D. Martinez got their first swings of the day at Fenway Park.
Bogaerts mashed a two-run shot over the Green Monster to tie the game, and tt wasn’t long before Martinez grabbed the lead for the Red Sox with a solo home run that landed over the Monster, making it 3-2 heading into the second inning.
