Wilyer Abreu homered twice and drove in three runs, and the Boston Red Sox beat the Chicago Cubs 6-1 to avoid a series sweep.

MLB insider Ken Rosenthal provides more insight into how active the Cubs and Red Sox will be ahead of the trade deadline.

Wilyer Abreu hit a pair of home runs and Garrett Crochet threw six quality innings to help the visiting Boston Red Sox earn a 6-1 victory over the Chicago Cubs on Sunday.

All-Star Pete Crow-Armstrong hit his 26th homer, one of five solo shots for the Cubs to back seven sharp innings by Shota Imanaga, and Chicago beat the Boston Red Sox 6-0.

The Boston Red Sox and the Chicago Cubs have some things in common — especially when it comes to the MLB trade deadline. Prior to Saturday’s game between the two teams, FOX Sports’ Ken Rosenthal identified Boston’s three biggest needs at the deadline. Coincidentally, Chicago is also in the market for the same type of players.

Shota Imanaga tossed seven shutout innings and five players hit solo home runs Saturday, carrying the Chicago Cubs to a 6-0 win over the Boston Red Sox.
