• Red Sox's Nathan Eovaldi: Strikes out 11 in no-decision

  21H ago •

  Eovaldi allowed two runs on four hits and a walk while striking out 11 in 6.2 innings during Sunday's win over the Mariners. He didn't factor into the decision. Although Eovaldi gave up a two-run homer in the top of the sixth inning Sunday, he logged a season-high 11 strikeouts and was in line for the win when he exited the matchup. However, he was forced to settle for the no-decision since the Mariners tied the game in the top of the ninth inning. Although Eovaldi was unable to pick up the win Sunday, it was encouraging to see him bounce back after he gave up nine runs (six earned) in 1.2 innings during his last start. The right-hander projects to make his next start at home against the Orioles on Saturday as part of a doubleheader.

• Red Sox's Nathan Eovaldi: Second-inning meltdown

  6D ago •

  Eovaldi (1-2) took the loss during Tuesday's 13-4 defeat at the hands of the Astros, allowing nine runs (six earned) on eight hits in 1.2 innings. He failed to record a strikeout. Eovaldi recorded a five-pitch first inning, but it was all downhill from there as he surrendered five home runs before being pulled while only recording two outs in the second. This marked the 32-year-old's first time allowing more than three runs in eight turns this season, and his ERA jumped more than a full run to 4.32. He'll look to get back on track this weekend with another start against Seattle on the docket.

• Red Sox's Nathan Eovaldi: Strikes out six in no decision

  11D ago •

  Eovaldi gave up three runs on six hits across 6.1 innings during Wednesday's 5-3 loss to Atlanta. He struck out six and walked one. Eovaldi cruised through the first two innings but got into trouble in the third when Orlando Arcia singled to center. Travis Demeritte followed the single with a two-run shot, and two batters later Matt Olson hit an RBI double to center, tying the game 3-3. Eovaldi was able to settle down after the shaky third, but he was pulled in the seventh inning with 98 pitches after giving up another single to Arica. The veteran righty sports a 3.15 ERA and 42:7 K:BB across 40.0 innings, but he's allowed at least one home run in all but one start this season, including multiple homers three times.

• Red Sox's Nathan Eovaldi: Middling performance Friday

  17D ago •

  Eovaldi (1-1) gave up three runs on six hits and three walks while striking out four over five innings Friday against the White Sox. He took the loss. Jose Abreu had a sacrifice fly in the top of the third inning and Luis Robert hit a towering two-run homer in the third, which accounted for all the damage on Eovaldi. He has already given up eight home runs in 33.2 innings this season, which is the one big knock on Eovaldi's otherwise stellar season. Tentatively, he lines up to start next weekend in Texas.

• Red Sox's Nathan Eovaldi: Shines with seven scoreless frames

  22D ago •

  Eovaldi did not factor in the decision against Baltimore on Saturday despite tossing seven scoreless innings during which he allowed three hits and no walks while striking out eight. Eovaldi held the Orioles without a hit for 5.2 frames and left with a 1-0 lead after seven standout innings, but the Boston offense generated only one run and its bullpen couldn't hold the lead for the right-hander. Still, this was another impressive performance for Eovaldi, who racked up 16 swinging strikes and notched his second consecutive quality start. He'll carry a 2.51 ERA, 0.94 WHIP and 32:3 K:BB into his next outing, which is scheduled to come at home against the White Sox on Friday.
