Rick Porcello Survives Coors Field
5 years agoBoston Red Sox starting pitcher Rick Porcello allowed just two runs over five innings, while striking out five and walking none in a 10-6 win over the Rockies on Tuesday. Porcello was solid, despite scattering eight hits. Although, none of them were a home run, which is just the eighth time in 27 starts this season that he hasn't surrendered a long ball. If you were brazen enough to throw out Porcello in this matchup, you were rewarded, but know it wasn't the smartest move. He improves to 12-10 with a 5.42 ERA over 149 1/3 innings with a 117/42 K/BB. He'll get a more favorable matchup on Sunday when he goes up against the LA Angels.
