Boston Red Sox Drop Middle Game Vs. Houston Astros; Nathan Eovaldi Tagged For Five Home Runs

Nathan Eovaldi needed just five pitches to get through the first inning of Tuesday's game between the Boston Red Sox and the Houston Astros at Fenway Park, but couldn't have been more opposite in the second when he gave up five home runs in the 13-4 loss. It wasn't all bad, though. J.D. Martinez and Rafael Devers had three hits apiece as they continue their strong seasons. NESN's Lauren Campbell and Massachusetts Pirates team insider Jake Ignaszewski break down the game as well as discuss yet another update in the Xander Bogaerts contract extension talks (spoiler alert: it's opposite of what we heard over the weekend).
