The storylines were fitting together nicely for the Red Sox on a beautiful Sunday afternoon at Oracle Park that resembled a postcard. Lucas Giolito was grinding his way to a quality start.

After homering earlier in the game, Yastrzemski’s hard-hit line drive yielded an error from second baseman Romy Gonzalez, who let it go off his glove, allowing the go-ahead run to score in the seventh inning.

Boston Red Sox left fielder Jarren Duran was ejected in the eighth inning of a 9-5 loss to the San Francisco Giants on Sunday after he argued a tag call at second base that had been upheld following a replay review.
