Kyle Tucker had a season-best three hits and tied a career high with four RBIs as the Houston Astros beat former bench coach Alex Cora and the Boston Red Sox 11-2 on Monday. This was the first time Cora, now managing the Red Sox, had faced the Astros since being suspended in 2020 for his role in Houston's sign-stealing scheme while with the team in 2017. He was fired by the Red Sox after his suspension, then rehired last November. "I got suspended," Cora said, reflecting on the scandal before the game. He yielded three hits and one run, striking out nine in six innings in his return from the injured list.
