The Boston Red Sox defeated the Philadelphia Phillies 3–1 on May 13 at Fenway Park in a low-scoring affair dominated by Boston's pitching. The Red Sox starter was particularly effective, allowing just three hits and one earned run while striking out ten batters over his outing. Boston's offense managed eight hits and two home runs to support the dominant pitching performance, though the team's .236 batting average and .667 OPS reflected the struggle both lineups faced. Philadelphia's pitcher surrendered eight hits and three earned runs, with the Phillies striking out ten times against Boston's arms. The visiting offense was held to just three hits and a single run, posting a .232 average despite drawing three walks. Neither team committed errors, but Boston's pitching depth—10 strikeouts against three walks—proved the decisive factor in this defensive battle. The result underscores a concerning trend for Philadelphia's offensive consistency on the road, while Boston's rotation shows promise despite an elevated team ERA.
