It’s been 251 days since Steven Wright’s knuckleball had the Dodgers fooled for all nine innings during a shutout in Los Angeles.
Just two days after that, he was used as pinch runner, dove back into second base and injured his shoulder.
And still, something isn’t right with Wright.
In the worst start of his career, Wright was shelled at Fenway Park Wednesday night. The Baltimore Orioles took him deep four times in less than two innings of work, jumping out to an eight-run lead before he was yanked by manager John Farrell with one out in the second.
