Both of Eovaldi’s wins this year are against the Orioles, the other coming on opening day.
“Nate Eovaldi give us a really tough time,” Baltimore manager Brandon Hyde said. “That was an unbelievable start. That was Nate being really, really good, throwing every pitch for a strike — the fastball, the cutter, breaking ball, the split —- and being on for seven innings.”
Boston used an RBI single by José Peraza and a run-scoring grounder to take a 2-0 lead in the second inning, and Bogaerts upped the advantage with a homer off Asher Wojciechowski in the third.
Wojciechowski (1-3) threw 88 pitches before being lifted with two outs in the fourth.
“I wanted to come out and have a good quality start and get us back on track,” the right-hander said. “I wasn’t able to do that, but we’ve just got to flush it.”
Baltimore’s Anthony Santander extended his career-best hitting streak to 15 games with a first-inning single. He’s batting .355 with seven home runs, seven doubles, a triple and 18 RBIs during this torrid run. It’s the longest hitting streak by an Orioles since Trey Mancini’s 17-game stretch in September 2017. … Boston leadoff hitter Alex Verdugo stretched his hitting streak to 11 but didn’t get an extra-base hit for the first time in eight games.
