The Red Sox dropped the opener of a doubleheader against the Guardians, 5-4, at Cleveland Saturday afternoon. Tanner Houck allowed four runs and eight hits in five innings and Rafael Devers hit his third home run of the season for the Sox. Wilyer Abreu also homered, his fifth of the season.

Houck came away with a no-decision in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Guardians, giving up four runs on eight hits and a walk over five innings. He struck out six. The right-hander has yet to put together back-to-back strong outings this season,

The Red Sox scored three runs in the first inning to hand starting pitcher Tanner Houck an immediate 3-0 lead. The righty then immediately gave it back, allowing four runs on five hits (two doubles, three singles) in a disastrous bottom of the first inning.
