The Boston Red Sox dropped the series opener to the Baltimore Orioles last night, 4-2. The struggles at Fenway Park continue as they’re now 9-20 at Fenway Park, averaging 3.2 runs per game while allowing 4.1 runs per game. Ahead of tonight’s middle game of the series against Baltimore, the Red Sox are placing Nick Sogard on the injured list with right-side soreness, according to Sean McAdam. The Red Sox are recalling infielder Anthony Seigler from Triple-A Worcester.

Sogard, in 12 games this season with Boston, is hitting .257 with a .721 OPS. He has two doubles, a triple, two RBI, and three runs scored. In 36 games at Worcester, he’s hitting .269 with a .871 OPS. He has nine doubles, five home runs, 23 RBI, and 27 runs scored.

Seigler this season is hitting .298 with an .896 OPS. He has seven doubles, a triple, three home runs, 21 RBI, and 14 runs scored. He is red hot, currently riding a six-game hitting streak in which he’s hitting .450 with two doubles, two home runs, four RBI, and four runs scored. Seigler was a part of the trade with Milwaukee in the offseason that brought Caleb Durbin and Andruw Monasterio to Boston.
