Ceddanne Rafaela added a two-run home run and Carlos Narvaez hit a solo shot for the Red Sox. Boston also received three hits from Rob Refsnyder.
Hunter Dobbins (2-0) made his second MLB start for Boston and held Chicago to two runs (one earned) on three hits in six innings. He struck out six and didn't walk a batter.
