Red Sox score twice in ninth to top Marlins 4-2 in Miami

The Boston Red Sox rallied in the ninth inning to secure a 4-2 victory over the Miami Marlins on August 24 at loanDepot park. Trailing 2-1 entering the eighth, the Red Sox tied the game on a wild pitch before taking the lead in the ninth following an early exit by Marlins closer Pete Fairbanks due to nerve irritation. Sandy Alcantara pitched seven solid innings for the Marlins, limiting Boston's offense, but the late inning collapse ended Miami's three-game winning streak. The Marlins will continue their series against the Red Sox on August 25 as they seek a response to this defeat.
