Unfortunately for the Boston Red Sox, their offense failed to show up in their first game against the New York Yankees this season.
Coming off their highest run total at home this year on Monday against the Detroit Tigers, the Red Sox's lineup fell flat on Tuesday, getting shut out for the second time in eight days.
Boston couldn't get anything going against Luis Gil and the Yankees' bullpen, managing just four hits and three walks as the Red Sox were shut out at home by their archrivals for the first time since 2020.
After the game, Alex Cora called out Boston's latest poor performance at the plate.
"Not much. Didn't hit the ball hard," Cora said during his postgame press conference. "Willson in the first inning, Narvy the line drive to right-center, but besides that, I don't think we hit the ball hard at all. We swung a lot. It was fast in the middle innings for Gil... We didn't put pressure on him."
