← 2024 Seasons

The 2025 Boston Red Sox season is the ongoing 125th season in Boston Red Sox franchise history, and their 114th season at Fenway Park. Alex Cora is the team's on-field manager, in the fifth season of his second stint in that role. The team opened the regular season in an away game against the Texas Rangers on March 27, and is scheduled to conclude with a home game against the Detroit Tigers on September 28.[2]

Offseason

In September 2024, the team announced they would introduce a new "City Connect 2.0" uniform for the 2025 season, while retaining their existing City Connect uniform (yellow and blue) and retiring their blue alternate road jersey, which had been introduced in 2009.[3] As of late November, the team had 10 players under contract for the 2025 season: Brayan Bello, Rafael Devers, Lucas Giolito, Liam Hendriks, Ceddanne Rafaela, Rob Refsnyder, Trevor Story, Garrett Whitlock, Justin Wilson, and Masataka Yoshida.[4]

Grapefruit League schedule ran from February 22 through March 23,[62][63] during which the Red Sox compiled a 15–12 record.[64]

The Red Sox concluded their spring training with two games in

Monterrey Sultanes.[65] The Red Sox won both games, by scores of 10–1 and 12–8.[66][67]

March/April

On March 26, manager Alex Cora announced that Rafael Devers will move to the DH position with Alex Bregman becoming the regular third baseman.[69]

March 27–30, at Texas Rangers

The Red Sox began the season with a four game series away at the Texas Rangers. The Red Sox won the first game of the series by a score of 5–2.

Ezequiel Duran.[79][80][81]

Red Sox lost the series 1–3 (11–13 runs)

Boston's troubles from their season-opening Texas series carried into the opener of their stay in Baltimore.

Charlie Morton. Sox fans were treated early with a highly anticipated moment: Alex Bregman's first home run as a Red Sox, which came in the opening half-inning and brought home Devers, setting the tone for Boston with an early 2–0 lead. Cedric Mullins homered in the bottom of the 1st to bring the score to 2–1, but Campbell responded with another two-run homer – his second long ball of his young career – in the top of the 2nd. Triston Casas contributed his first home run of the season in the seventh inning. Houck's final line was 4 IP, 3 earned runs, 5 hits, and 6 strikeouts, not quite good enough for the decision, which went to reliever Zack Kelly
, who became the pitcher of record in what proved to be an 8–4 Boston victory and a 2–1 series win for the Red Sox heading into their home opener against their four-time World Series opponent St. Louis Cardinals.
Red Sox won the series, 2–1 (16–12 runs)
