Abreu's Power Surge, Red Sox's Late-Inning Struggles

0:00On March 29th, Wilyer Abrayu is on fire for the Boston Red Sox, smashing back-to-back home runs over the weekend against the Cincinnati Reds. Saturday, he crushed a game-tying shot in the ninth inning at Fenway. Then Sunday in Cincinnati, he went deep again to break a scoreless tie. That Sunday blast came in the fourth inning of Red Starter, Red Louder. Abrayu sat on a 3-2 slider and sent it into the right field seats, putting Boston up to nothing in the series finale. Fans are buzzing about Abrayu's hot start to the season. The right fielder added a double in a single that day, batting 4-62 with four RBI's through three games. But the Red Sox couldn't hold the lead. Eugenio Suarez smashed a three-run homer for Cincinnati and Boston's offense went quiet after that. Now, one in two on the year, the Sox head into the next series, looking to build on Abrayu's power while fixing those late inning woes.
