The Boston Red Sox opened their August 8-10 series against the San Diego Padres with a commanding 10-2 win, led by Walker Buehler in his return to Southern California.
The former Dodger and longtime Padres rival posted six scoreless innings with four hits, four strikeouts and two walks. It was his first outing without an earned run since May 20, when he was ejected in the third inning. Buehler's postseason stuff came back at just the right time.
According to Chris Cotillo of MassLive, the Red Sox have recently considered making some rotation changes.
