On a hot Fourth of July at Nationals Park, Giolito — along with a relentless Red Sox offense — led Boston to an 11-2 rout. The veteran starter continued a dominant stretch with his longest outing since 2021, allowing just a single run on four hits while striking out seven Nationals and pitching into the eighth inning.

If the Boston Red Sox decide to look to trade Alex Bregman, the surging Detroit Tigers could emerge as a good landing spot.

Members of the Boston Red Sox took advantage of an off day in Washington, D.C., to meet President Donald Trump in the White House on Thursday.

The visit became public for the Red Sox, who traveled with family to Washington ahead of a series with the Nationals, when a White House official posted video to social media.
