Archer has the longest current winless-start streak against Boston by any active major-league pitcher.allanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04673233312198832937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-22821857847147084162016-04-20T20:00:52.330-07:002016-04-20T20:00:52.330-07:00And the last-place Yankees lost again, to fall to ...And the last-place Yankees lost again, to fall to 5-8, 4 GB.allanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04673233312198832937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-51963802467004295812016-04-20T10:23:02.851-07:002016-04-20T10:23:02.851-07:00Elias:

The Red Sox were...Two Elias notes from last night:<br /><br />The Red Sox were held to just one hit by three Tampa Bay pitchers in a 3-0 loss in 10 innings on Tuesday night. It marked the first time that Boston had one or fewer hits in an extra-inning game since September 18, 1934 in a contest the Red Sox would win 2-1 over the St. Louis Browns in 10 innings.<br /><br />Drew Smyly allowed one hit and struck out 11 in eight innings of work for the Rays. He is the first left-handed opposing pitcher to allow one hit and register 10 or more strikeouts at Fenway Park and the only right-handers to do that against the Red Sox at Fenway are Walter Johnson (July 1, 1920), Bob Feller (May 25, 1939), Jim Bunning (July 20, 1958), Mike Mussina (September 2, 2001) and Jake Arrieta (June 30, 2014).<br /><br />Also: The Yankees got just one hit - a first inning RBI single by Alex Rodriguez - in seven at bats with runners in scoring position in their 3-2 loss to the A's on Tuesday night. The Yankees are now just 5-for-64, good for a .078 batting average, with runners in scoring position over their last seven games.allanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04673233312198832937noreply@blogger.com
