Durbin Breaks Slump, Shines in Red Sox Win

0:00On April 3rd, Boston Red Sox, third baseman Caleb Durvin, came into their home opener on Friday, Hitless, and 18 at Bats. That slum had him striking out five times with just one walk. But in that game against the Baltimore Orioles, he finally broke through, going one for four with a key run vatted in. Earlier in the week, Durvin had been pressing hard at the plate. His first swing Friday turned into a double play that killed a rally. Still, he stayed focused despite the early struggles. Fans let him hear it with booze heading back to the dugout. Durvin gets it though. Boston crowds the man to lot, and he welcomes the pressure as what makes the city special for ball players. With a runner on second and two outs later, he ripped the fastball up the middle for an RBI single. That scored Jaren Duran and gave the socks and breathing room. He also locked down third base with sharp picks on short hops and strong throws. Overall, it marked Durvin's strongest outing yet in a Red Sox uniform. If he builds on this, expect him to contribute big on both offense and defense as the season rolls on.
