A season-high eight run outburst from the Fredericksburg Nationals was not enough to take Sunday’s series finale against Salem, as the Red Sox scored 14 runs of their own in a 14-8 final.
The FredNats established high water marks in both runs and hits, and briefly led in the early innings. Once the game turned to the bullpen, however, the Red Sox cruised to their fifth victory in the six-game set.
