Triston Casas doubled, homered and drove in two runs, Josh Winckowski pitched out of a seventh-inning jam to protect a one-run lead and the Boston Red Sox opened a three-game road interleague series with a 3-2 victory over the San Francisco Giants on Friday night.
Rob Refsnyder drove in a key run with a pinch-hit single and Kutter Crawford struck out seven in 5 2/3 innings for the Red Sox, who were opening a six-game Western swing.
The Giants got one back in the sixth when Marco Luciano recorded his first big-league hit, a single off third baseman Rafael Devers' glove, and scored his first big-league run on a single by Michael Conforto. Down 2-1, the Giants got back-to-back singles from J.D. Davis and Patrick Bailey to open the seventh, but Winckowski retired the next three batters, including a pair of strikeouts after Davis, the potential tying run, had reached third with one out.
Giants starter Logan Webb was lifted one out into the eighth, charged with all three Boston runs on six hits. He walked none and struck out four.
