Aroldis Chapman got the save (and he also made history).
MLB wrote: “Aroldis Chapman picks up his 30th save of 2026! He joins an elite list of Hall Famers to have 10+ 30-save seasons: Mariano Rivera, 15 Trevor Hoffman, 14 Lee Smith, 10 Aroldis Chapman, 10”
After the game, manager Chad Tracy spoke about Chapman when he met with the media (h/t NESN).
Tracy: “And you’ve got Chappy, he’s been a godsend as far as being able to have some back-end guys with big, big stuff to come in and wipe some innings out. He’s been everything as advertised. He’s been so good for us since we got him.”
Chad Tracy summed up the #RedSox win nicely 😂
