Overview

  • Boston held a 2–1 lead after three innings thanks to doubles by Jarren Duran and Roman Anthony plus an RBI single from Carlos Narváez.
  • Play was halted by lightning and heavy rain after an 80-minute delay forced umpires to clear the field and suspend the contest.
  • The suspended game is scheduled to restart Wednesday at 2:30 p.m. ET as the first half of a day-night doubleheader at Fenway Park.
  • Nick Martinez and Brayan Bello are set to start the resumed contest for Cincinnati and Boston respectively.
  • The delay prevented rookie Richard Fitts from qualifying for his first big-league win despite a strong three-inning debut.
