The Washington Nationals beat the Boston Red Sox 10-2 on Wednesday afternoon at Fenway Park to take the series. James Woods drives the offense, hitting a three-run home run that is his 22nd of the season. Andrés Chaparro also homers, connecting for a two-run shot, while Nasim Nuñez records his first major-league hits, according to reports. Luis García Jr. contributes from the bench with a pinch-hit, two-run single.
The Nationals’ victory follows a different result in the series opener, which they lost on Monday. After rebounding from that setback, they close a 4-2 trip.
Boston enters the game having completed a 5-2 homestand and after sweeping a four-game series against the New York Yankees, but the Red Sox are held to two runs by Washington’s pitching and timely hitting. The result gives Washington the series win at Fenway Park.
