The Boston Red Sox closed out a three-game sweep of the Los Angeles Angels with a 7-5 win at Angel Stadium, with first pitch on Sunday, July 5, 2026, at 9:30 PM local time.

Jarren Duran and Willson Contreras both went deep to power the offense, while a five-man Boston bullpen combined for six and one-third scoreless innings of relief after starter Ranger Suarez was forced from the game early.

The result extended a miserable stretch for the Angels, who dropped their fifth straight game and fell to 11-17 since June 17, while the Red Sox pushed their record to seven wins in nine games.
