Walker Buehler pitched six innings and allowed three runs to defeat the Guardians in the second game of Saturday’s doubleheader.
All of the runs came in the fourth, an inning which featured a Jhonkensy Noel homer. Buehler finished with three strikeouts and seven whiffs in the 87-pitch outing. We still wouldn’t go recommending him in mixed leagues, but the Red Sox will remain satisfied with average results. He’ll probably make his next start Friday against the Twins, though Thursday in Toronto is also an option.
Heliot Ramos went 3-for-4 in a loss to the Diamondbacks on Monday.
Ramos was one of the few hitters who had any offensive success against Merrill Kelly in a game where the GIants were held to just one run by Kelly and the D-Backs’ bullpen. The three knocks ups his average to .290, and he’s been on fire in the month of May with a .400/.472/,800 slash over his 30 at-bats in that timeframe.
