Kenley Jansen collected the 434th save of his career in Boston’s win on Saturday.
Rafael Devers drove in the go-ahead run with a sacrifice fly in the eighth inning and Jarren Duran made a game-saving defensive play in the ninth as the Boston Red Sox rallied to beat the Cincinnati Reds 4-3 on Saturday.
Pinch-hitter Rob Refsnyder singled home the tying run before Duran tagged on Devers’ fly ball and slid home just ahead of left fielder Stuart Fairchild’s throw from foul ground.
“I decided to go home right away on the sacrifice fly,” Duran said. “I was fully committed to going home.”
Kenley Jansen retired the Reds in the ninth for his 14th save in 15 chances. He got a huge assist from Duran, who leaped to get his glove above the center field fence to rob Fairchild of a tying home run.
“I thought the ball was way gone,” Red Sox manager Alex Cora said.
