ImpactDespite earning his third consecutive quality start, Crawford was saddled with his fifth consecutive loss in this 89-pitch appearance. Once again, the long ball haunted the Boston right-hander, as he allowed two homers in this game, bringing his league-worst total to 31 on the season. Even though he has gone 0-5 over his last five outings, Crawford has pitched to a 3.68 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 24:8 K:BB across 29.1 innings during that stretch. He is currently slated to make his next start against the Yankees on the road this weekend.
