Overview

• Jahmai Jones delivered a two-out, two-run single in the fifth inning to erase a 1-0 deficit at Fenway Park.
• Starter Keider Montero gave up one run over 4 1/3 innings with seven strikeouts before Brant Hurter, Rafael Montero, Tyler Holton and Will Vest (23rd save) finished the job.
• Javier Báez saved a run with a full-extension catch to end the second inning, then scored the decisive run on Jones’ hit.
• Boston, which clinched Friday on Ceddanne Rafaela’s walk-off, rested several regulars as rookie Connelly Early struck out seven and allowed two runs in five innings.
• The result locks in consecutive playoff trips for Detroit for the first time since 2011-14 and lets A.J. Hinch align ace Tarik Skubal for Tuesday’s Wild Card opener, with division hopes dependent on the Guardians’ results and tiebreaker.
