Red Sox 1-2-3 hitters go 0-for-9 with nine strikeouts, first since 1901

Top 3 in the Red Sox lineup today: 0-for-9, 9 strikeouts.

In the Red Sox last 50 innings, they have scored 12 runs, 2.2 R/9. They have scored in nine of the innings. 1 run in six and 2 runs in three.

Hats off to Boston fans who have watched the Red Sox all season. I've lost count of the fundamental breakdowns in just the past few innings of this game

my favorite example of this is when in 2004 Bill Simmons was like “it’s over, my soul is finally at peace, this Red Sox team from front office down to the last guy in the bullpen is immortal forever“ and before the 2006 regular season ended he was taking a dump on eeeeveryone except David Ortiz lmao

The first four hitters in the Red Sox lineup are 0 for 9 with 9 strikeouts and one HBP. 4-0 Rays in the 6th.

The Red Sox are just so incredibly bad. I don’t even understand how a team is this bad.

It's time. #RedSox need to sell HARD. They've got the 4th worst win % in the bigs, second to last in the AL. Last in HR, 4th worst OPS. Sell Chapman, Gray, Contreras, Yoshida, and maybe Duran. Get whatever the hell you can for Story and Bello. Move some of the scrubs as throw-ins...

Red Sox are a flat out nothing burger. Cannot waste my time anymore.

I know the world is... this. But the #RedSox team assembled by Craig Breslow and this ownership group is genuinely sad to watch and insulting to anyone who pays Fenway prices.

New SABR Games Project jawn 🚨 brings us back to high school, with the story of a teenage future Red Sox legend turning in a two-way pitching and outfield performance to help his team to the Eastern Mass. HS final: sabr.org/gamesproj/ga...

2026 Red Sox are a hoot. Can't wait to see what their braintrust comes up with for next year when the games might matter again.

Which was pretty much the plan for this Red Sox team - high OBP, control of the strike zone by pitchers, just enough power, and every few games you can see it, but the hitting just hasn't been there.

First time since 1901. Red Sox 2026 baseball in a nutshell.

I see the Trop has brought its weird energy back to the Red Sox. Glad they’re leaving

@slangsonsports.bsky.social can I get confirmation on this, Sarah? “With Wilyer Abreu’s 7th inning strikeout, the Red Sox become the first team in the modern era (since 1901) to have their 1-2-3 hitters each strike out in their first 3 at-bats of a game.” #RedSox
