His efforts were the difference and helped Brayan Bello outduel Giolito in the 3-1 Red Sox win.“He’s still got work to do but that’s the beauty of Raffy, he can go 0 for 4 with four strikeouts and then the next day he has three strikeouts and he puts a good swing and that happens.” said Red Sox manager Alex Cora. “He’s hitting the ball harder than ever, he’s struggling against fastballs but hitting them hard, heR...
