Mookie Betts greeted Twins starter Kyle Gibson with a solo home run to open the bottom of the first inning at Fenway Park. Friday marked the second night in a row that Betts led off the first inning with a homer, having done so against Tyler Duffey on Thursday. The last Red Sox player to hit a leadoff homer in consecutive games was Betts himself earlier this season on May 31 and June 1. Only three other players in the modern era - that is, since 1900 - have hit leadoff homers in back-to-back games multiple times within a single season. Brady Anderson had a four-game streak with a leadoff homer for the 1996 Orioles, Craig Biggio had a pair of two-game streaks in 2001 for the Astros, and Alfonso Soriano had two streaks of two games for the 2007 Cubs.
