Strahm (2-4) lasted just three innings Tuesday's loss to the Red Sox, allowing five runs on seven hits and a walk while striking out four.
The young left-hander unfortunately had the tall task of taking on Boston ace Chris Sale, although Strahm labored to just complete three-plus frames. It took him 75 pitches to get through his outing, with 50 of those offerings going for strikes. Most of the damage was done in the fourth inning, in which Strahm failed to record an out before being removed four batters into the frame. This rough outing raised his previously decent ERA to 4.80, a figure he'll look to improve on in his next outing Tuesday against the Tigers.
