BOSTON (AP) — Adley Rutschman hit his first homer as a member of the Red Sox, Ranger Suarez picked up his first win since late June and Boston beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 9-4 on Tuesday night. Mickey Gasper also homered for Boston and added an RBI single in the seventh as the Red Sox followed up their 16 hits in an 11-1 rout Monday night in the series opener with 13 more hits Tuesday.

Marte has reportedly irritated teammates and coaches with his frequent off days in the past. The situation first gained attention late in 2024, when the Diamondbacks were contending for a wild-card spot and Marte missed a pivotal game against the San Francisco Giants. The Diamondbacks missed out on a playoff spot due to a tiebreaker.
