Drew Gilbert wrote the first half of San Francisco's fourth-inning answer at Fenway. Rafael Devers wrote the second. Boston still left with the win.
The Associated Press recap on ABC News said the Giants pulled within 5-4 in the fourth after Gilbert hit a two-run homer off Red Sox starter Sonny Gray, and Devers followed with a solo shot. CBS Sports' scoring play reads, "D. Gilbert homered to right, C. Koss scored," moving the line from 3-5 to a closer deficit before Devers homered to center.
The line behind the swing
CBS Sports' batting table lists Gilbert in center field at three at-bats with one run, two hits, and two RBI - a clean 2-for-3, two-RBI night. That same CBS board credits him with his seventh home run of the season in the game's HR summary ("SF - D. Gilbert (7), R. Devers (26)").
The AP noted he later left the game when a pinch-hitter struck out for him in the seventh.
The homer was a two-out RBI swing that scored Christian Koss, per the CBS play-by-play wording. It did not erase Boston's earlier five-run inning, but it was the loudest Giants contact until Devers went back-to-back.
What happened around him
Willson Contreras' three-run homer off Logan Webb highlighted Boston's five-run burst, the AP reported, and Webb took the loss (8-8). Gray improved to 16-3 with six innings and four runs allowed. Wilyer Abreu's RBI triple in the sixth pushed Boston back ahead by two, and Aroldis Chapman finished with his 28th save, per the AP.
