Boston Red Sox starter Tanner Houck made the wrong kind of franchise history on Monday night, surrendering 11 runs (all earned) against the Detroit Tigers (GameTracker). In the process, Houck became the first Red Sox pitcher since Major League Baseball was integrated to surrender 10 or more earned runs in multiple appearances during a single season.
Houck, who was pulled during the third inning, yielded those runs on nine hits and three walks. Most of the damage (nine runs) came during the third inning, a frame that saw him give up a little league home run to Riley Greene (credit an error by right fielder Wilyer Abreu) and a more traditional home run to Trey Sweeney. Both were of the three-run variety.
Houck’s first meltdown start occurred on April 14, when he gave up 12 runs (11 earned) over the span of 2 ⅓ innings against the Tampa Bay Rays. It was the worst outing by a Red Sox pitcher in more than 60 years. He nearly topped that Monday.
While Houck is the first Red Sox pitcher to allow this many runs across two starts since integration, he’s the third to do it all-time. The other two? Win Kellum (back in 1901) and Wes Ferrell (1936). Kellum made just six total appearances for the Red Sox; Ferrell, meanwhile, would win 20 games (and notch nearly seven Wins Above Replacement) that season despite those disastrous outings.
Monday’s start represented the latest stretch of turbulence this season for Houck. Over the course of his first eight starts, he compiled a 6.10 ERA (69 ERA+) and a 2.29 strikeout-to-walk ratio. He had fared better since that aforementioned Rays start, notching a 3.57 ERA in his subsequent four appearances. Obviously that number will look considerably worse come Tuesday morning.
The Red Sox entered Monday’s game with a 22-20 record on the year, putting them in second place in the American League East.

Muller dispara contra treinador do Brasileirão: “Covardia”
Muller em registro no programa "Gazeta Esportiva" (Reprodução - YouTube) Muller voltou a subir o tom contra Luis Zubeldía, ao repercutir a derrota do São Paulo no clássico frente ao Palmeiras, em duelo do Brasileirão, ocorrido neste final de semana. A exemplo do que já afirmara diversas vezes, o comentarista da Gazeta questionou o perfil ‘retranqueiro’ do argentino. Na concepção dele, o argentino mais uma vez não armou um time ousado para jogar de igual para igual contra o Verdão, e pagou caro pelo estilo de jogo baseado quase que em sua totalidade em se defender. PUBLICIDADE PUBLICIDADE “O Zubeldía entrou para não perder, com medo de perder. Três zagueiros e dois laterais plantados lá atrás, são cinco zagueiros. Ele limitou o time do SPFC a se defender constantemente, haja vista que o Weverton não trabalhou no primeiro tempo”, iniciou […]

Loni zvítězili Cozens a Boldy. Kdo ovládne tabulku střelců a kanadské bodování na MS v hokeji 2025
V loňském roce na šampionátu v Praze se nejlepším střelcem stal kanadský útočník Dylan Cozens, který dokázal nastřílet devět branek v deseti utkáních. Kanadské bodování pak ovládl Američan Matt Boldy, který odehrál kvůli dřívějšímu vypadnutí USA pouze osm utkání, připsal si v nich však skvělých šest gólů a osm asistencí.Nejlepšími střelci českých šampionů byli s pěti vstřelenými brankami Lukáš Sedlák a Dominik Kubalík, kanadské bodování českého národního týmu pak ovládl kapitán Roman Červenka s jedenácti body za tři góly a osm asistencí.
