The 1994 Boston Red Sox season was the 94th season in the franchise's Major League Baseball history. The season was cut short by the 1994–95 Major League Baseball strike, and there was no postseason. When the strike started on August 12, the Red Sox were in fourth place in the American League East with a record of 54 wins and 61 losses, 17 games behind the New York Yankees.

Season ended due to players' strike | [citation needed]

On July 8, shortstop John Valentin executed an unassisted triple play in the sixth inning of a game against the Seattle Mariners—Valentin caught a line drive, touched second base, and tagged the runner coming from first base.[11] Alex Rodriguez made his major league debut in the same game, going hitless in three at bats.[11]

### Season standings[edit]

This was the first season that the American League was structured with three divisions, with a realignment creating the AL Central. As a result, the AL East was reduced from seven teams to five. With three divisions, this was scheduled to be the first season with a wild card team advancing to the postseason. However, due to a players' strike, the season ended in August, and there was no postseason.
