Red Sox Lose 6-1 to Rangers in Rain-Soaked Game

The Boston Red Sox lost 6-1 to the Texas Rangers at Fenway Park on a rain-soaked Tuesday night, dropping to one game below .500 and marking their fifth loss in six games. Lucas Giolito, in his second start since returning from injury, allowed six earned runs on 10 hits over 3.2 innings and struggled with his grip in the wet conditions, which led to several odd incidents including slipping on the mound and fielding issues. The poor weather raised questions about whether the game should have been played. Former Red Sox pitcher Nathan Eovaldi dominated for the Rangers, striking out seven over six innings and allowing just one run. Boston’s offense managed only three hits through five innings and failed to generate momentum. Despite the slump, manager Alex Cora expressed no concern about the team's early-season performance.
