Red Sox Pitchers Struggle in Toronto

On April 29th, Red Sox pictures keep hitting rough patches, and last night in Toronto was

no different as they dropped an 8-1 decision to the Blue Jays.

Brain Bellow took the loss after getting tagged for four runs in just three and two-thirds

innings, failing to make it out of the fourth.

The trouble started in the third, with back-to-back-to-back singles loading the bases, and Kazuma

Okamoto's hard hit single brought in a couple.

A walk set up of Yohendrick Penangle for another RBI single before Roman Anthony gunned down

a runner at the plate to end the inning.

Bellow looked heated walking off the mound after throwing only 63 pitches, shaking his

head at Interim Manager Chad Tracey's early hook.

He struggled all season, posting a 9.12 ERA over six starts, with just one going five-full

innings 15 walks against 17.

Strikeouts.

The bullpen didn't help, as Greg Weissert gave up a two-run homer right after coming

in.

Meanwhile, the rotations and shambles with Garrett Crochet hitting the fifth

15-day injured list yesterday, joining Sunny Gray, Patrick Sandoval, Cutter Crawford,

and Yohan Oviato on the shelf.

No word yet on a starter for Friday's home opener against the Astros at Finway, leaving

Boston scrambling to steady the shaky staff before things, spiral further.

That's the story for today.
