This organization put a lot of faith in me this offseason and I’ve been [expletive] embarrassing for us,” Walker Buehler said after Red Sox' loss to Yankees.

Walker Buehler got lit up for five runs in the first, raising the club's first-inning ERA to 7.06. That ranks 29th in the majors.

With lefty Brent Headrick replacing Warren, Cora turned to Romy Gonzalez and Rob Refsnyder, two of the best pinch-hitters on the roster, to bat in place of Mayer and David Hamilton. Gonzalez quickly plated two runs with a single, but Trevor Story and Refsnyder followed with a pair of foul-tip strikeouts to leave two men in scoring position.
