Travis Shaw picked a great time to hit the first home run of his second stint with the Red Sox.
Boston only needed one run in the bottom half of the 11th inning to win Monday afternoon's contest against the Texas Rangers. But Shaw brought in four, as his walk-off grand slam gave the Red Sox a much-needed 8-4 win at Fenway Park.
Shaw after the game expressed his gratitude to the Sox for giving him another opportunity in the big leagues. The veteran infielder also took to Twitter to share his excitement over his clutch round-tripper.
"Today was pretty fun... First one back in the red! @RedSox," Shaw tweeted Monday night.
Perhaps Shaw's heroics will serve as a catalyst for the Red Sox, who will be in a fight for a playoff spot over the final month-plus of the regular season.
