Chourio's leadoff homer lifts the Brewers over the Red Sox 3-2
MILWAUKEE — Jackson Chourio homered on the opening pitch from Garrett Crochet, and the Milwaukee Brewers defeated the Boston Red Sox 3-2 on Monday.
Milwaukee pushed the lead to 2-0 in the fifth on consecutive doubles by Joey Ortiz and Andruw Monasterio.
Milwaukee starter Chad Patrick pitched 4 2/3 scoreless innings, giving up three hits while walking two and striking out six. DL Hall, fresh off the 60-day injured list , came on to relieve Patrick with Jarren Duran on second base. Hall retired Rafael Devers on an easy ground out to first to end the threat.

Mike Trout's 'Sick' Reaction to Historic Angels Game at Fenway Park
Mike Trout's 'Sick' Reaction to Historic Angels Game at Fenway Park originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Mike Trout and the Los Angeles Angels came right out of the gate on Monday night's game against the Boston Red Sox like a house on fire. Advertisement In the first inning of the three-game series opener at Fenway Park in Boston, the Halos homered not once, not twice, but three times in a six-run frame that immediately blew the game wide open in favor of Los Angeles. Zach Neto started the Angels' home run party with a solo shot off Boston starter Richard Fitts. Trout later smashed a 454-foot three-run home run before Jo Adell smacked one into the stands for a 404-foot solo blast. According to Rhett Bollinger of the Angels became the first visiting team ever to score three home runs in the first inning of a game at Fenway Park. Angels outfielder Mike Trout (27) high-fives catcher Logan O'Hoppe (14) after a game against the Red Fluharty-Imagn Images The Red Sox threatened Los Angeles by scoring the next five runs to pull within a run through five innings. Adell then smashed another solo homer in the sixth inning to give the Angels a two-run lead. Advertisement Boston's Ceddanne Rafaela cut the Red Sox's deficit to one with a home run in the eighth inning, but Los Angeles managed to hold off Boston for a 7-6 win. After the game, Trout was informed of the incredible feat he helped author in the first inning. "Yeah, that's sick," the three-time American League Most Valuable Player told Los Angeles reporter Erica Weston in the postgame interview. "Like I said, it was fun to be a part of that first inning. Give the guys a lead, and you know we held it." The Angels improved to 27-32 with their win over Boston and will look to sustain their form when they give the ball to Yusei Kikuchi for the second game of the series this Tuesday.

Red Sox Trade Idea Sends Walker Buehler to Dodgers for Pair of Pitching Prospects
Red Sox Trade Idea Sends Walker Buehler to Dodgers for Pair of Pitching Prospects originally appeared on Athlon Sports. There is still plenty of time for the Boston Red Sox to right the ship. A difficult start to the season has put the Red Sox at 29-33 and nine games back of the New York Yankees for the American League East lead. Boston is also four-and-a-half games back of the third Wild Card spot. Advertisement Should the Red Sox continue to underwhelm, they could become sellers at the trade deadline. It is a discouraging notion, considering the preseason hype surrounding this team, but not one without promise. Jeff Passan of ESPN had this to say about their trade assets: 'The Red Sox shouldn't be under .500. Regardless of the wounds -- both external and self-inflicted -- they are replete with enough talent to secure an AL playoff spot. If the ugliness continues, though, turning an eye toward 2026 is on the table.' 'They've got an attractive array of players. [Walker] Buehler or Lucas Giolito for the rotation. Aroldis Chapman at the back end of the bullpen and Brennan Bernardino or Justin Wilson for teams in need of a left-handed reliever.' Advertisement Passan also mentioned the Los Angeles Dodgers as a potential fit for Buehler. Here is what a reunion could look like: Red Sox receive: LHP Justin Wrobleski (No. 10), RHP Kyle Hurt (No. 20) Dodgers receive: RHP Walker Buehler Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Walker Buehler (0) pitches against the Baltimore Orioles during the fourth inning at Fenway Fluharty-Imagn Images Buehler is having a decent season, going 4-3 with a 4.44 ERA, a 4.73 FIP, and 42 strikeouts to 15 walks over 46 and 2/3 innings. However, he is on a one-year, $21.5 million deal, and Boston may look for organizational depth instead of losing him for nothing this offseason. The Red Sox likely want to keep Garrett Crochet, Brayan Bello, and perhaps rookie Hunter Dobbins around for the long haul. Giolito is another tempting trade piece, but Buehler's history and familiarity with Los Angeles would make for a seamless fit. Advertisement Boston's return package is headlined by Wrobleski, a highly-regarded prospect who has not quite put it all together, yet. He has struggled over his 10 career MLB outings with a 6.15 ERA and a 6.13 FIP, and those figures are not much better than his Triple-A output (5.31 ERA over 40 and 2/3 innings). However, Wrobleski would also join a tantalizing group of Red Sox prospects with guys like Dobbins, Richard Fitts, and Luis Perales. Hurt is a sweetener in this hypothetical deal, and despite his current injury, he impressed in Triple-A in 2024 with a 3.07 ERA and 22 strikeouts over 14 and 2/3 innings. It is not an ideal situation for Boston, but one that could be necessary to avoid another season like 2025.

Rays' Shane McClanahan throws off mound; timeline for return is forming
TAMPA —Shane McClanahan could be in line to rejoin the Rays rotation as soon as late July, baseball operations president Erik Neander told MLB Network Radio. McClanahan, 28, is back to full strength and throwing regularly in his return from a triceps nerve issue that has sidelined him since late in spring training. Advertisement McClanahan threw off the mound at a slightly shortened distance Tuesday. If he feels good on Friday, he will throw his first normal bullpen session. The two-time All-Star will have to work through a progression of mound sessions, then live batting practice and a series of rehab games likely starting in late June. 'Where does that lead?' Neander said. 'I think just building out if all goes as planned from this point, probably somewhere in late July or early August, fingers crossed and crossed and crossed. But he's doing well and finally into his formal throwing progression at this point.' McClanahan hasn't pitched in a regular season game since Aug. 2, 2023, sustaining an elbow injury that led to his second career Tommy John surgery. He rehabbed during the 2024 season, entered spring training healthy and pitched well until the nerve issue surfaced in his final start. Advertisement In news on other injured Rays: • Outfielder Jonny DeLuca will be shut down from baseball activities for three more weeks after a second setback in his recovery from the right shoulder strain that has sidelined him since early April. • Reliever Hunter Bigge is over the soreness from the right lat strain that landed him on the injured list in early May but remains shut down from throwing for now. • Infielder Ha-Seong Kim is continuing his rehab assignment as he recovers from right shoulder surgery. He went 2-for-16 in his first five games as the DH and playing second base. His first appearance at shortstop is set for this week. Advertisement • Infielder/outfielder Richie Palacios, who played only one mid-April game after returning from a broken right ring finger and then spraining his right knee, is 'doing well' and 'continuing to make progress' in drills, including baserunning and defense. A wet celebration How did Zack Littell's teammates celebrate his complete game Saturday, the first by a Rays pitcher in nearly four years? Stuffed into a laundry cart for a shower of beer and other liquids, typically the plan for a first win or first save. 'That was fun; you don't get to do many anymore,' Littell said. 'It was cold. It's nice being a little older. I can tell people, 'If you throw ketchup on me, we're going to fight,' which is good.' Rainy days and Wednesdays, Thursdays ... Rain is forecast to be an issue for much of this week's homestand, but manager Kevin Cash and several players said there isn't much they can do except be ready to play whenever the conditions are right. 'I don't think we can plan anything other than show up to the ballpark ready to play and then let MLB and people within stadium ops to handle some of those decisions,' Cash said. Miscellany Former Rays star Evan Longoria on Wednesday will be inducted into the Sports Club of Tampa Bay Hall of Fame as part of a class that includes Lightning coach Jon Cooper, ESPN broadcaster Dick Vitale and sports commission head Rob Higgins. Longoria will be honored again before Saturday's game, as he officially retires as a Ray. ... Reliever Pete Fairbanks has organized an event to be held at Saturday's game to raise money and awareness for Turner syndrome, with merchandise available and an auction of baseball memorabilia going live that day. ...Radio broadcaster Andy Freed will recite Lou Gehrig's retirement speech in a pregame presentation Wednesday in partnership with the ALS Foundation. ...
