Locked On Red Sox - Daily Podcast On The Boston Red Sox

Michael Wacha became the third Boston Red Sox pitcher to throw a complete game in the last three weeks in their 1-0 win over the Los Angeles Angels on Monday night.

The Angels now have lost 12 straight games while the Red Sox have won five consecutive contests and are above .500 on the season.

NESN's Lauren Campbell breaks down Wacha's complete game (the second of his MLB career), how long it's been since a pitcher threw a complete-game shutout in a 1-0 win and looks at just how strong the pitching has been in the Red Sox's last six starts.

The Boston Red Sox could not win their fifth straight series after being shut out by the Baltimore Orioles in Monday's finale at Fenway Park.

Rich Hill didn't have his best stuff, but manager Alex Cora did not believe it had anything to do with tipping his pitches and everything to do with command, The offense put up just four hits and the Red Sox still have yet to win a series against an American League East opponent.

NESN's Lauren Campbell looks at Monday's loss and the rants about the bullpen because there is no one that can be trusted with the game on the line, especially now with Matt Strahm -- who's been Boston's most reliable reliever -- on the COVID-19 injured list.

Five games in four days is no easy task, but the Boston Red Sox have to play the hand they're dealt.

After an ugly collapse Friday thanks to the bullpen being unable to hold an 8-2 lead going into the seventh and allowing the Baltimore Orioles to win, Nathan Eovaldi began Saturday's doubleheader by tossing a complete game -- the first of his career -- and gave the bullpen a much-needed rest.

NESN's Lauren Campbell recaps Friday-Sunday's games and touches on Josh Winckowski's MLB debut, Eovaldi's complete game and the home run party that was had Sunday!

Trevor Story is a man on a mission as he continues his incredibly torrid pace in the month of May. The Boston Red Sox second baseman hit yet another home run in the 16-7 win against the Chicago White Sox on Thursday night at Guaranteed Rate Field.

NESN's Lauren Campbell looks at Story's numbers in May and how much of a turnaround he's had since getting booed at Fenway Park after striking out four times against the Los Angeles Angels. Lauren also touches on J.D. Martinez and his MLB-best .380 average.

Also, what the heck is going on with Matt Barnes?! Lauren tries to make sense of it, but it's one of life's great mysteries at the moment.

All good things must come to an end.

The Boston Red Sox had their six-game win streak snapped at the hands of the Chicago White Sox on Wednesday at Guaranteed Rate Field. Rich Hill shouldered the blame, but NESN's Lauren Campbell tells you why he's not to blame given how the offense left 12 men on base and went 1-for-9 with runners in scoring position.

Lauren also looks at how Tanner Houck has been a reliable piece to this bullpen, and looks into Josh Wincowski -- who will start Saturday during the Red Sox's doubleheader against the Baltimore Orioles.

There also is a small update on the contract extension talks of Rafael Devers and, as always, Locked On Red Sox ends with the mental health minute.
