Arraez hit a hard line drive to left field that looked like it might fall for a base hit, but Red Sox outfielder Alex Verdugo made a tremendous diving catch to seal the victory.

Verdugo's catch was kind of similar to former Red Sox left fielder Andrew Benintendi's game-winning catch in Game 4 of the 2018 American League Championship Series versus the Houston Astros.
