Sloppy fielding by the Red Sox infield handed the Astros a handful of early runs and the bats wasted numerous scoring opportunities. Chris Sale (6-3-4-2-5, 89) was not sharp and was outpitched by Wade Miley (6-4-1-2-8, 102), which - simply put - should never happen.
The Red Sox are 3-8 in Sale's starts:
I don't really care whether I'm 6-1, 0-6, 0-0 for the whole year. I just want [the team] to win the games I pitch in. It sucks ... I'm not the biggest fan of coming in here to a quiet clubhouse, but it's on me.
