Red Sox outfielder Wilyer Abreu hit a wild home run that was almost an insane Marlins robbery in Sunday's game.
The Boston Red Sox confirmed that two fans were ejected from Fenway Park during Sunday's game against the Miami Marlins for shouting inappropriate comments at Miami Marlins' outfielder Dane Myers, per Peter Abraham of the Boston Globe.
Righthander Greg Weissert allowed a tying home run to Dane Myers and lefthander Steven Matz gave up the go-ahead shot to Jakob Marsee in a brutal late-inning sequence set up by the goings-on from the day before.
BOTTOM LINE: The Boston Red Sox play the Miami Marlins with a 1-0 series lead. Boston is 40-22 at home and 67-56 overall. Red Sox hitters have a collective .428 slugging percentage to rank third in the AL. Miami is 58-64 overall and 30-33 on the road. The Marlins have the fourth-ranked team batting average in the NL at .252.
