Garrett Crochet posted yet another quality start against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Saturday, the Boston Red Sox lefty earned a spot in the MLB history books.

Crochet (12-4) allowed two runs in the first inning, then combined with Justin Wilson, Garrett Whitlock, and Aroldis Chapman to blank the Dodgers for eight innings.

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.

To counter the legendary Dodgers southpaw, Red Sox manager Alex Cora has stacked his lineup.

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.”
