Summary
Willson Contreras is heating up in Boston, smashing nine extra-base hits and 17 RBIs in 15 games while earning an unexpected All-Star nod and dazzling fans at the Home Run Derby with a 490-foot blast. The Red Sox, riding a 14-2 surge, are back in Wild Card contention — and Contreras is at the heart of the revival. At 34, he’s having a career year, hitting .285 with 20 homers and an OPS over .920, thanks to a revamped swing and full-time first base role. He’s thrilled to stay in Boston, praising Fenway’s energy and the team’s newfound chemistry. His brother called it the best year of his life — and Contreras is proving he’s not just a power hitter, but a leader helping the Red Sox turn the corner.
