Video: Alex Verdugo Hits A Walk Off Homer For A 6-5 Red Sox Win
Mr. Clutch has done it again. For the 3rd time this season Alex Verdugo had a walk off hit to win it for the Sox. This time Verdugo crushed a leadoff home run off Blue Jays closer Jordan Romano in the bottom of the 9th. It was his 5th homer of the season. The city of Boston desperately needed to get out of the funk after the shocking Bruins loss last night, followed by the Celtics surprising Game 1 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers just moments before Verdugo came through with the big hit.
Verdugo also had a walkoff hit vs. the Twins on April 18 and against the Guardians on April 29.
3 WALK-OFFS THIS YEAR ALONE!
6 AS A MEMBER OF THE RED SOX!
