Red Sox pitcher Lucas Giolito delivered an exceptional performance, allowing one run in 7 ⅔ innings during Boston's 11-2 win against Washington on the Fourth of July. This game marked a dominant showing against the team where he started his MLB career. Despite past injuries, including elbow surgery and a hamstring strain, Giolito expressed satisfaction with his growth and resilience throughout the ups and downs of his career. His recent form has significantly improved from an earlier rough start, showcasing his determination to excel with Boston.
Giolito's latest outing, a 7 ⅔ performance in which he allowed one run and Boston won 11-2, felt extra special for the 30-year-old hurler.
He only appeared in six games for the Washington Nationals in 2016 before being traded to the Chicago White Sox the following offseason.
Giolito spoke about his outstanding start, reflecting on his career journey and welcoming the challenges that come with it.
His long road included undergoing elbow surgery before throwing a regular season pitch for Boston in March 2024, after missing all of last season.
