Brayan Bello started for the Boston Red Sox against the Baltimore Orioles on June 4 at Fenway Park. Bello allowed six runs in a tumultuous first inning, including five hits and three walks, severely impacting the Red Sox's chances early in the game. The strategy of not using an opener for Bello backfired similarly to a previous outing against the Atlanta Braves. Although Bello settled down later, the Red Sox may reconsider their approach with him in the first inning in future games.
