The Red Sox have struck out 28 times in two losses at Philadelphia. Roman Anthony has had back-to-back four-K games. Alex Cora isn't worried, though.

He became the first Red Sox player — ever — to strike out four times in consecutive games, doing so Monday and Tuesday.

Thirteen months to the day Sánchez signed what could be a franchise-altering extension with the Phillies, he threw his third complete game.

On Tuesday, against talented Phillies lefty Cristopher Sánchez, Alex Cora is sitting three key regulars (including Jarren Duran).

Mookie Betts was not with the Dodgers when the team arrived in Boston for this weekend’s series at Fenway Park, but the former Red Sox MVP is expected to be back soon.

On Tuesday, the Red Sox will give the ball to Richard Fitts (1-3, 4.28), who will be making his ninth start of the season. He pitched well in his last appearance, a 9-3 win over the Colorado Rockies on July 7, when he gave up three runs (two earned) in 5 2/3 innings.

Carlos Narváez hit a go-ahead two-run homer in the 11th inning and Romy Gonzalez hit a grand slam in the fifth as the Boston Red Sox outlasted the Philadelphia Phillies 9-8
