5 years agoBoston Red Sox designated hitter J.D. Martinez finished with three hits, including clubbing his 18th home run of the season on Sunday. The 31-year-old's solo shot came in the first inning and he was part of a trio of Red Sox to homer in the opening frame. It's been a solid month for Martinez, who's slashing .310/.378/.610 with seven homers and 16 RBI in June. While he's struck out 26 times in 100 at-bats this month, he's also walked 11 times and scored 17 runs. If the Red Sox want to make any playoff push during the season's second half, they'll need more productive months like this from Martinez.--Steve Janik - RotoBaller
