Wong homers twice as Red Sox hammer Guardians

Connor Wong homered twice, Rafael Devers connected in his return to Boston's lineup and the banged-up Red Sox got another solid pitching effort in an 8-0 win over the Cleveland Guardians on Wednesday night. Wong hit leadoff homers in the second and sixth innings off Carlos Carrasco (1-2). After testing his knee by scoring on a double in the first, he homered in the fifth and the Red Sox piled up a season-high 16 hits to cool off baseball's hottest team with a four-hit shutout. “Any time that guy is in the lineup it completely changes it,” Wong said of Devers.
