MINNEAPOLIS -- This should have been a night Clay Buchholz could take pride in. Despite having far from his best stuff, the righty limited the Twins to seven hits and two runs over 7 1/3 innings.
Instead, Buchholz shared the frustration of his teammates, who once again lacked firepower in a 2-1 loss to the Twins.
Aside from a couple of games at Fenway Park last weekend, the Red Sox have spent May mired in a near unfathomable offensive funk.
This marked the ninth time in the past 18 games the Red Sox scored two runs or fewer.
