Joe Kelly had everything (but the stretch) working today, and Mookie Betts played Fenway perfectly as the Red Sox crushed the Indians.
To date, Joe Kelly's season was one disaster, a start that ended in a first-inning injury, and the subsequent disabled list stint. He needed a bit of a statement in his return to action--well, not really, because Clay Buchholz is still pitching, but a statement would certainly go a long way.
Well, statement made.
The thing with Joe Kelly is that, for all that his velocity would suggest a power pitcher capable of blowing batters away, there are few who have gotten less out of high-90s heat than Kelly in recent years.
