The Red Sox’ fielding woes hit a new low in the early part of the season in Friday’s 7-0 loss to the Angels.
Boston committed three errors — all in the first three innings — of Friday’s loss, turning routine plays into costly mistakes. Shortstop David Hamilton hurt the Red Sox’ chances of getting out of a first-inning jam when his throw to second base to try and get a double play went wide. Triston Casas dropped a pop-up in foul territory in the second inning Following a Brandon Drury single in the third, Ceddanne Rafaela’s throw from center field to the cutoff man, Casas, ricocheted away and allowed a run to score.
