The article highlights the struggles of the Red Sox season, emphasizing their poor performance in one-run games at 4-12, despite a plus-18 run differential. The standout moment during a recent game against Tarik Skubal was showcased by an impressive putout referred to as 'the ole alley-oop robbery'. Furthermore, Tanner Houck faces a significant injury requiring a 15-day IL stint. Manager Alex Cora acknowledges the talent down in the minors but insists on the contributions of current players, noting the need for defensive and pitching improvements, particularly in late-game situations.
"The lasting highlight will be what Walker Buehler described as 'the ole alley-oop robbery.' A 9-8 putout in the scorebook, with Wilyer Abreu bringing back a potential Kerry Carpenter home run and Ceddanne Rafaela catching the rebound."
"Obviously, there's a lot of talk about what some of the guys are doing in the minor leagues, right? And obviously they're really good at what they do. But we have some good players here, and they're doing their job."
