The Red Sox scored runs in the last five innings Monday to pull off a win against the White Sox at Fenway Park.
The White Sox took an early lead but it was the Red Sox who came away with a 6-5 victory, moving to 43-37 on the season.
Eduardo Núñez started the late scoring with an RBI single in the fifth and added another in the eighth. Michael Chavis, Mookie Betts and Marco Hernández all drove in runs, as well.
Hernández knocked in the walk-off run with two outs and the bases loaded. He reached on an infield single that brought home Andrew Benintendi.

Pirates (36-40) at Astros (49-30), 8:10 p.m. ET — The Astros remain in control of the American League West but they have struggled lately losing seven of their last eight games. Houston hopes to get back on track when it hosts Pittsburgh. The Pirates will start Trevor Williams (2-1, 4.12 ERA) while the Astros will counter with Gerrit Cole (6-5, 3.54 ERA).
Hernandez left Monday's game against the Cubs after being struck in the pitching arm by a line drive, though he avoided serious injury.
A number of MLB free agents have finally found a home this offseason, but there are still plenty of intriguing players still out there.
Texas Wesleyan baseball coach Mike Jeffcoat was fired for telling a recruit the team was not interested in players from Colorado.
Tony Clark said commissioner Rob Manfred made his changes to pace of play without any approval from the MLBPA.
With the acquisition of Giancarlo Stanton, some are calling the Yankees "The Evil Empire" once again, and Steinbrenner is OK with that.
