Kristian Campbell News: Blasts first major-league home run
Campbell started in left field went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a double and a walk in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Rangers.
Campbell tied things up for the Red Sox in the fourth inning when he took Jacob Webb deep for a 431-foot solo homer to center. Campbell earned a spot on Boston's Opening Day roster despite struggling in spring training, but he appears to have settled in nicely and has gone 5-for-10 over his first three major-league games. He's made two starts at second base and one start in left field. He'll look to finish the four-game series off strong Sunday against Rangers right-hander Jacob deGrom.
