Former Tennessee Vols LHP Garrett Crochet went viral on Saturday after he led the Boston Red Sox to a 4-2 win against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Crochet, who is in his first season with Boston, gave up two earned runs while striking out 10 in six innings against Los Angeles.

Crochet allowed two solo homers in the first inning but then settled in. The lefty led the Red Sox to a 4-2 victory over the Dodgers in front of a sold-out, mixed crowd of 36,687. “The first inning, I‘ve never seen anything like that," Cora said. “Credit to them.”

The Red Sox bounced back from a series opening loss to the Dodgers but Garrett Crochet thinks media coverage of the game favored LA's stars.
