Bello Shines in Red Sox Win

0:00From Boston Red Sox coverage, this is your March 20th update. Bram Bello showed he's prime for the regular season and the Boston Red Sox 4-2 win over the Minnesota Twins. He tossed six scoreless innings, striking out seven batters while giving up just three hits and zero walks. It was a clean, commanding performance that highlighted his growing control on the mound. This outing fits a strong recent pattern for Bello. After his last two starts since the World Baseball Classic, he's gone 12 innings without allowing a run, surrendering only seven hits and fanning. Fourteen, again with zero walks. Stepping back further, he's given up just one earned run across his past 19 innings this spring. Fans and observers are buzzing about Bello's improved command, especially with his curveball becoming a reliable weapon to mix things up. His confidence is evident and it's helping him deploy his full pitch mix effectively against hitters. The Red Sox offense chipped in enough support, with Wilson Contreras going two for two including a double, an RBI, and a run scored in his return.

1:03They also debuted new lefty Danny Coulomb in the 9th, who showed some promise despite an uneven run capped by an error. If Bello keeps pitching like this into the season, it could reshape Boston's starting rotation and give them a solid boost early on.
