The Red Sox faced off against the Astros and once again came up short. The Sox had Joe Kelly on the mound who had just made his return after being sent down to the minors to work on whatever it is that has been causing him trouble this season. Kelly didn’t pitch poorly, but he wasn’t able to keep the Astros bats from sending the ball out of the ballpark. The Sox looked like they might rally late, but were unable to get the timely hits they needed to get a much needed win.
Joe Kelly took the mound and before he finished an inning he already gave up a run.
