The Boston Red Sox can’t figure out how to put together a winning streak, as they haven’t won three consecutive games this season. The Red Sox have two losing streaks of three or more games (March 28 to April 1 and April 4-6) and have lost two straight to the New York Yankees.
Unable to fully put things together as a team, Red Sox manager Alex Cora voiced his frustrations that his players aren’t producing when they need to.
“We have to be better,” Cora said postgame. “Second and third with no outs, we've got to score. We've got to find a way to put the ball in play and score and where we’re at right now, it's been tough. The whole home stand, right? We had some situations with [Tarik] Skubal when he pitched, bases loaded no outs. We score one, first and third, no outs, we didn’t score. So we got to be better. Everybody here believes that we have a good team. Good teams have to find a way to score runs against good pitching.”
The Red Sox's lone run came on a two-out single to centerfield by outfielder Jarren Duran, which scored infielder Trevor Story. The game would end a batter later when infielder Caleb Durbin grounded out to shortstop.
Alex Cora stated that the team needs to be better, emphasizing the importance of capitalizing on scoring opportunities.

The best chance the Red Sox had to cut in and possibly overtake the Yankees was in the bottom of the second like Cora said. With runners on second base and third base and no outs, three straight Red Sox hitters: Durbin, catcher Connor Wong and infielder Isiah Kiner-Falefa struck out.
As a team, the Red Sox are hitting .223 (23rd) and 20th in ERA for the pitching staff (4.39). If the Red Sox are to turn things around they will need their two star players, outfielder Roman Anthony and left-hander Garrett Crochet, to turn their seasons around.
Anthony is hitting .225 with a .686 OPS in 22 games, while Crochet is 2-3 with a 7.88 ERA in five starts.
