"Bases loaded, top of the first, Joe Boyle looking like a deer in the headlights on the bump, the perfect opportunity to do damage early. Nathaniel Lowe strikes out. Boyle regains control and shuts down the Sox with nine total strikeouts. A late send by Kyle Hudson for Romy Gonzalez in the fourth inning, who ends up getting nailed at the dish."
"Did the Sox offense wake up a little bit in the 7th? Yeah, but then cooled right back off when they were right within striking distance. Don't worry, the bullpen blew the game open enough to where it didn't matter. Onto Toronto, where wins are at even more of a premium in the last road trip of the season. Striking out not once, but TWICE with the bases loaded tonight was absolutely head banging against the wall frustrating."
The Red Sox opened with bases loaded and failed to capitalize as Joe Boyle settled and recorded nine strikeouts. Nathaniel Lowe struck out twice with the bases loaded, including an early miss in the first and another in the fifth. A late send for Romy Gonzalez in the fourth resulted in an out at the plate, reducing scoring potential. The offense showed brief life in the seventh but cooled off before mounting a full comeback. The bullpen then widened the deficit, and Christian Abreu returned with a golden sombrero. The team now heads to Toronto with wins scarce.
