During their 2013 World Series Championship run, the Boston Red Sox never had a losing record. After yesterday’s loss to the Milwaukee Brewers, the Red Sox are now 2-4 and 0-3 at Fenway Park.
Yovani Gallardo threw 6.2 scoreless innings and his bullpen did the rest as the Brewers shutout the Red Sox 4-0 to sweep the weekend interleague series.
Jon Lester got the start and took the loss for the Red Sox despite not pitching that badly. His defense let him down and for the second straight game, he got no run support.
Lester allowed four runs (two earned) on seven hits and a walk over 7.1 innings. He did strikeout six.
Every Red Sox starter had a hit in the game. Seven of them were singles with Jackie Bradley Jr. and Daniel Nava hitting doubles.
