Going for the sweep against the Los Angeles Angels, the Red Sox trotted out Nathan Eovaldi to counter José Quintana of the Angels.
The Red Sox started from behind. I know, same story, different day. The second inning began with Eovaldi hitting Anthony Rendon. Afterwards, Jared Walsh set up a second and third, with no outs situation with a double. Taylor Ward singled home a run, the first of the contest. José Iglesias reached on a fielder’s choice, and Walsh got caught in a run down between third and home. He bought enough time to get Ward on to third for the next hitter, but this was a key out, the first of the inning for the Red Sox.
