With the home run, he became the fifth Red Sox player since J.D Drew in 2008 and the fifth in franchise history to earn the game’s MVP award named after Ted Williams, a 19-time all-star and the consensus greatest player in Red Sox history.  

 

Dodgers Shohei Ohtani hit a three-run home run, giving the National League the lead 3-0 in the top of the third.

 

But in the end, it was all American League from there, and they were able to come back and win the game 5-3.
