Red Sox Tumble to 2-7, Worst Record In MLB

The Red Sox are now tied for the worst nine-game start in franchise history. Despite winning Friday, they dropped the final two games of the series to the Padres, with Sunday's 8-6 loss cementing their status at the bottom of the league.

Boston faces a difficult path forward as they host the Milwaukee Brewers, who enter the series tied for the best record in baseball at 7-2. The Red Sox need to turn things around quickly to avoid falling further behind the competition.
