Impact Chris Martin worked a scoreless ninth inning to protect a 3-3 tie, while Justin Slaten had pitched earlier in the night, so manager Alex Cora had limited options to handle the bottom of the 10th after Boston took the lead. Lefty Zach Penrod began the frame, but his first offering was a wild pitch that sent the phantom runner to third base, and he got only one out while putting two batters aboard. Shugart then took the mound and walked in one of his inherited runners, but he eventually got Addison Barger to pop out to end the game. Roles at the back of the Boston bullpen remain in flux over the final handful of games with Kenley Jansen (shoulder) on the shelf, but Shugart isn't likely to see another save chance.
