All you need to know is that the Boston Red Sox left 13 runners on base and were 0-11 with runners in scoring position on Sunday, as the Red Sox lost to the Houston Astros 3-1 in 10 innings. Couple all of that with the fact that Ranger Suarez who was cruising left the game with hamstring tightness after 4 innings.

Suarez went 4.0 innings and allowed 3 hits, striking out 3 and walking 1 before having to leave the game with hamstring tightness.

That meant that the Red Sox's bullpen which has been overworked need to finish the game. They used 6 relief pitchers with Zack Kelly ultimately forced to pitch the 10th inning. He walked 2, and allowed a 2-run single in the10th inning.Kelly is 0-2 on the season.
