Red Sox option Brayan Bello to Triple-A Worcester before Yankees series
Summary

The Boston Red Sox have optioned pitcher Brayan Bello to Triple-A Worcester following a poor performance against the Baltimore Orioles. Bello gave up eight earned runs in five innings during the Red Sox's 8-2 loss, raising his season ERA to 6.34. The decision comes as the team prepares for a three-game series against the New York Yankees. Left-handed reliever Joe La Sorsa will be added to the roster in his place.
