Clint Hurdle managed the Colorado Rockies in 2005 when they lost 95 games and finished in last place. They won the National League pennant two years later and were swept by the Red Sox in the World Series.

The Boston Red Sox are riding high after finishing off their seventh consecutive win on Thursday. The team is now 50-45 and in sole possession of the final American League Wild Card spot. In addition, they are only five games back in the AL East. This is all happening after they had traded away Rafael Devers to the San Francisco Giants.

Brayan Bello struck out a season-high 10 in the first nine-inning complete game of his career, Trevor Story hit a three-run homer and the Boston Red Sox beat the Colorado Rockies 10-2 for their fifth straight win.

The Boston Red Sox have some "decisions" looming as their $21 million starter struggles to continue his career.

The bid for perfection didn’t last, but Brayan Bello did. He tossed the first complete game of his big-league career, in a 10-2 Red Sox triumph.

Red Sox rookie Richard Fitts allowed five hits, two earned runs and struck out six over 5 2/3 innings to notch his first major league victory.
