These brooms were made for sweeping! And that’s just what the Red Sox hope to do to the Detroit Tigers today: win the third game of the series.
We know the offense can bring it - they’ve scored at least 6 runs six times so far this season - but can the pitching? Specifically the starting pitching? In Kutter Crawford’s 2023 debut he lasted just four innings while allowing 7 runs. The good news: 6Ks against 2 walks. But with 8 hits the righty simply wasn’t fooling enough batters.
With Brayan Bello and Garrett Whitlock (and maybe James Paxton too) on the mend and completing rehab starts, Crawford isn’t long for the rotation.
