The Red Sox suffered one of their worst losses of 2025, falling in 11 innings Tuesday despite Nathaniel Lowe's heroics in the ninth.
After squandering a ninth-inning lead and a chance to sweep the Marlins on Sunday, it would have seemed hard to believe an even more painful defeat awaited the Red Sox on this brief five-game homestand.
Boston’s new first baseman isn’t in Monday’s Red Sox lineup, which has a newly returned player in the leadoff spot.
Lowe was a Gold Glover and a Silver Slugger for his previous team before the Nats, the Texas Rangers. With the Nats, he’s regressed a bit, slashing .216/.292/.373/.665 with 16 home runs and 17 doubles. While it seems like his hitting is down, it looked like he was beginning to figure it out, hitting a grand slam in his last game with Washington.
