Kirby pitched 5.1 innings against Boston on Wednesday, allowing two runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out two batters in a no-decision.

Kirby surrendered a run in the first inning but wasn't scored upon again until the sixth. In the latter frame, he gave up a pair of one-out hits, leading to his removal and ending a streak of nine straight starts of at least six frames. The right-hander had recorded a quality start in each of those contests and logged a 1.73 ERA in that span, though he posted just a 3-2 record. Kirby will try to begin a new streak his next time on the mound, which is tentatively slated to be a matchup against Detroit.
