Red Sox 7, Blue Jays 13: Rick Porcello’s very bad not good night ends the streak

Well, that’s not how you want to see a streak end. Obviously, the Red Sox weren’t going to win out the rest of the way, but this was a jarring game. To be fair, it wasn’t all bad. The offense had itself a good night — though it was still frustrating for them at times — but it couldn’t overcome an awful night for the pitching. More specifically, it couldn’t overcome an awful night for Rick Porcello. We’ve seen bad versions of the righty before, but this was something different. He was nowhere close to the strike zone, and when he did hit the zone the Blue Jays crushed him.
