In a thrilling display of speed and strategy, Jarren Duran made history for the Boston Red Sox by stealing home against the Cleveland Guardians, marking the team's first straight steal of home in 16 years. Duran’s sprint from third to home plate came in the top of the third inning, giving Boston a commanding 6-0 lead. This stunning move highlighted Duran's remarkable abilities as one of the fastest players in Major League Baseball.

Before this moment, the last Red Sox player to pull off a straight steal of home was Jacoby Ellsbury back in April 2009. Duran's performance against Guardians' rookie pitcher Doug Nikhazy included two hits and an impressive RBI triple earlier in the same inning, showcasing his offensive prowess as well. With a perfect 9-for-11 success rate in stolen bases this season, Duran continues to establish himself as a key player in the Red Sox lineup, especially as they seek to revitalize their streaky offense.
