Eovaldi allowed five earned runs on seven hits and three walks while striking out six across four innings Tuesday against the Giants. He did not factor into the decision.
Eovaldi surrendered two solo home runs and was sunk by a general lack of command. Notably, he walked two of the first three batters he faced to begin the third frame, resulting in a three-run inning. The Red Sox were trailing 4-1 when he exited the contest, but Eovaldi was bailed out by run support to avoid a losing decision. He had pitched fairly well entering Tuesday's contest, allowing only seven earned runs across his prior 16.1 frames, but Eovaldi still owns a 5.81 ERA and 1.54 WHIP across 52.2 innings for the season. He'll look to get back on track in his next start, currently scheduled for Sunday at Tampa Bay.
