The Red Sox snapped a four-game skid and a five-game road losing streak with a 4-2 win over the Rangers in Monday’s series-opener, thanks to a three-run outburst in the eighth inning, headlined by Rob Refsnyder’s two-RBI single. Texas fell into a tie with the Mariners for the final Wild Card spot in the AL. The Rangers have lost four straight, following a six-game winning streak.
