Davis Martin's Rough Start Leads Red Sox to 14-2 Win Over White Sox

Boston Red Sox defeated the Chicago White Sox 14-2 at Fenway Park, exposing a dramatic decline in pitcher Davis Martin's performance. After a strong start to the season with a 2.41 ERA, Martin surrendered nine runs in the first inning, including a grand slam by Caleb Durbin and a home run by Jarren Duran, after allowing a double and a hit‑by‑pitch to start the frame.

The loss raises concerns for the White Sox, who had relied on Martin as a key rotation piece. Earlier in the year he had posted multiple double‑digit strikeout games and was considered a potential All‑Star. The recent outing may prompt the team to address the underlying issues behind his sudden slump.
