The Philadelphia Phillies edged the Boston Red Sox 2–1 on May 12 at Fenway Park in a low-scoring affair that fell well short of the Vegas total line of 1. Boston managed just 7 hits with a .664 OPS and struck out 7 times, while Philadelphia's lineup produced only 5 hits but capitalized with 1 home run and 2 RBIs to secure the victory. The Red Sox pitching staff was effective in strikeout production with 9 K's, though they allowed 2 earned runs across the game. Philadelphia's pitchers recorded 7 strikeouts and limited Boston to just 1 run despite surrendering 7 hits, demonstrating superior run prevention when it mattered most. Both offenses struggled to generate consistent contact—each team posted a .235 batting average—but the Phillies' ability to convert their limited opportunities, particularly the solo home run, proved decisive. Boston's clean defense with no errors couldn't overcome the offensive drought that left runners stranded. The result underscores Philadelphia's pitching depth and situational hitting as they maintain momentum in the series.
