Red Sox Scores: May 5, 2017

Game No. 029

Run production continues to be an issue for the Sox. Despite putting up nine hits, including a home run, the team left eight runners on base — five in scoring position. Twins veteran All-Star Joe Mauer hit his first walk-off home run of his career, a solo blast to center field with two outs in the bottom of the ninth to help his team pick up their fifth win in six games.

For every Red Sox game this season, @Dan Perrera and I will be visualizing the final score. Our ground rules: scores must be posted before the first pitch of the next game and must represent the final score. New for this year: home games will be on a white background, away games on black, and the Red Sox will always be red.
