In a much-needed performance, Trevor Story helped the Boston Red Sox secure a 9-3 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday. Story, who had been struggling with a .131 batting average, broke out of his slump by going 4-for-4, driving in two runs, and scoring once. This marked his best game of the season after entering the game with only four hits for the month. The veteran shortstop had been batting at the bottom of the lineup due to his early struggles, which included 21 strikeouts in just 14 games. Reflecting on his performance, Story expressed satisfaction with the team's resilience, stating, "Feels good... Showed some toughness there, for sure, as a team." Red Sox manager Alex Cora noted that Story returned to a simpler approach at the plate, focusing on hitting strikes and using the whole field. The Red Sox will aim to maintain this momentum as they head into a three-game series against the Minnesota Twins starting Monday at 7:40 p.m. ET.
