Hernandez said. “Everything I threw, they put the bat on, and it was a base-hit”. “Couldn’t get anything”. King Felix allowed 12 hits, 10 earned runs, and three homers through 2.1 innings in what might be regarded as the worst outing of his career.

Three years ago, he was flawless against Tampa Bay in a 1-0 win at Safeco Field.
“I came out and asked the team: ‘Where’s Farrell at?,'” he said. “He’s a little swollen and we took it out of his hands”, interim Red Sox manager Torey Lovullo said. The only silver lining to all of this is we were able to score 10 runs.
“We hit just about every emotion that you possibly can, that was topped off with a lot of excitement in the dugout”.
Since his departure, the Red Sox have exploded offensively scoring 37 runs, homering seven times, and accumulating 47 hits in two games against the Seattle Mariners. Mike Zunino and Austin Jackson also homered. Obviously, the Red Sox have had a lot on their minds after learning that manager John Farrell was diagnosed with stage one Lymphoma, yet they’ve somehow managed to turn that into a laser sharp focus we haven’t seen from their offense all season long.
Left fielder Dave Peralta had three RBIs and first baseman Paul Goldschmidt delivered a two-run double in the ninth inning for the Diamondbacks after the Braves had scored four times in the eighth. Boston gave 3B Pablo Sandoval (right elbow contusion) the day off after he left Saturday’s game with an injury. Cano went 5-7 with the homer and a double.
Bradley began the day hitting.
Bradley had just 74 at-bats entering the game and saw his average climb from.
Yasiel Puig and Kike Hernandez homered during a five-run second inning, and Adrian Gonzalez and Justin Turner also homered to power Los Angeles.
Leading 3-1, Boston broke it open with its six-run third. But when Ortiz (representing the winning run) advanced to second base on an infield single by Rusney Castillo that packed the bags, the decision became far more debatable, as a well-placed single could do the trick. Walks from Mookie Betts and Brock Holt set the table, with a double-steal allowing Xander Bogaerts to drive in a run on a ground ball to first.
Bogaerts delivered another RBI groundout with runners on the corners and one away in the ninth to make it 8-7. Mariners LHP Charlie Furbush (left biceps tendinitis) completed his bullpen session Sunday but did not improve. Having a couple of those coaches moving into new roles as well could lead to some short-term disorganization, but the Red Sox are confident that they have the right people in place to step in and succeed. He said X-rays were negative. The series sweep was Seattle’s first all-time in a series of three or more games at Fenway Park.
This season, Nuno has worked primarily out of the bullpen for the Mariners as he has made 20 appearances and just two starts, compiling a 3.00 ERA in 30 innings pitched.
The Mariners got off to a fast start, building a 7-0 lead against rookie left-hander Henry Owens.

Following the Sox’ recent offensive outburst, Owens has to like his odds of picking up his second major league win Sunday in his home debut.
