Red Sox pitcher Rubby De La Rosa picked up a win Monday after allowing just one hit and three walks in seven scoreless innings and striking out three in his team's 1-0 victory over the Twins.
De La Rosa (2-2) has picked up a decision in each of his four starts, but Monday's outing was his best since his season debut, when he also pitched seven scoreless innings while striking out eight batters. He owns a 2.84 ERA and 23:7 K:BB ratio in 25 1/3 innins. De La Rosa isn't scheduled for another start, but his success Monday could by him a shot against the A's this weekend.
