Ceddanne Rafaela’s one-out triple was his first extra-base hit since the All-Star break, and at 394 feet, would have been a homer in six ballparks. He became the first player to touch home, thanks to an RBI single by new Red Sox leadoff man Roman Anthony.

On the mound for the Twins was Simeon Woods Richardson. He pitched 4 2/3 innings, giving up seven hits and three earned runs while striking out five. An Alex Bregman home run in the fifth would prove costly for both the Twins and Woods Richardson — at the time, anyway.
