Chris Sale strikes out 17 batters in 7 innings for the Red Sox against the Rockies, but a high pitch count costs him a chance to try to match or beat the record of 20 Ks in 9 innings. He has to settle for a no-decision as Brandon Workman gives up a two-run homer to Charlie Blackmon in the 8th. The Sox’s pitchers end up with 24 strikeouts in 11 innings, but Colorado still wins, 5 – 4.
