Trevor Story gives Red Sox MLB-best 10th walk-off win of season and a 2-1 victory over Miami Marlins
It was Boston's 10th walk-off win of the season, the most in the majors.
Josh Simpson (2-2) walked Roman Anthony and Alex Bregman to start the ninth. Jarren Duran was squared around to bunt, but Simpson hit him with a pitch to load the bases. Calvin Faucher came in to face Story, who hit a chopper past the second baseman to end it.
Marlins starter Sandy Alcantara retired the first 12 batters before Story singled to lead off the fifth inning. Alcantara retired the next five as well before Anthony walked with two out in the sixth and scored to make it 1-1 on Bregman's double.
Aroldis Chapman (4-2) pitched a perfect ninth for the win.
Key moment
Red Sox starter Lucas Giolito held Miami to one run on seven hits and a walk, striking out five before leaving the 1-1 game with one on and one out in the seventh. Justin Wilson replaced him and got Xavier Wilson to ground into a double play to end the inning.
Key stat
Story stole second base in the fifth inning, making him successful on 21 of 21 attempts. It is the longest single-season stolen base streak for a Red Sox player since the caught stealing statistic was first tracked in the AL in 1920.
Up next
Miami RHP Cal Quantrill (4-9, 5.09 ERA) is scheduled to face Boston RHP Brayan Bello (8-6, 3.25) in the second game of the series on Saturday.

Wisconsin basketball guard projected as one of nation's leading scorers
With college football just around the corner, preview work for the college basketball season is taking a back seat. However, Wisconsin fans have reason to be excited for the 2025-2026 campaign. The Badgers are expected to be one of the better teams in both the Big Ten and the entire sport. One of the players who will determine Wisconsin's success is junior guard John Blackwell, who is poised to make a significant jump as the team's top option. According to a website dedicated to college basketball data and analysis, Blackwell is projected as one of the highest scoring players in the sport this winter. Torvik has Blackwell with the ninth-highest projected points per game total, just below Ohio State's Bruce Thornton and BYU's AJ Dybantsa. Wisconsin's transfer portal class of Nick Boyd, Andrew Rohde, Austin Rapp and others will be crucial for the team's success this upcoming season. Still, roster retention remains the most important thing in the current age of college sports. Returning contributors like Blackwell, Nolan Winter, and Jack Janicki should have just as much of a say in the team's success. Expect a big year from Blackwell and the rest of his Badgers teammates.

2025 Unadilla Motocross 450 Qualification: Jett Lawrence tops first session
NEW BERLIN, New York: Jett Lawrence (2:11.757) took his time getting up to speed and was one of the last riders to start his first lap, but he rocketed to the top of the chart immediately. He fell back to fourth for a few laps and then put in a heater at the end to land on top with a lap more than 1.6 seconds faster than the field. Justin Cooper (2:13.443) slotted into second as he looks to reclaim his top-five momentum after finishing just outside that mark last week. Eli Tomac (2:15.438) was nearly two seconds further back in third, but he was on top of the chart for a while, indicating he may have mistimed when to put in his fast lap. Ken Roczen (2:15.538) returned to action this week to shake some rust off before the SuperMotocross playoffs with the fourth-fastest time. Jorge Prado (2:15.769) rounded out the top five.
