Sonny Gray on being pulled in Game 2 loss to Yankees: 'I would have liked to have been trusted in that moment'

Boston skipper Chad Tracy removed ace Sonny Gray during the fifth inning of Game 2 against New York while trailing by a single run. The manager turned to reliever Erik Miller to face Cody Bellinger, echoing a similar failed pitching change from the previous contest.

Bellinger promptly delivered an RBI single to expand the deficit to two runs, and the bullpen eventually surrendered seven additional tallies in a 9-2 defeat. Gray expressed deep disappointment regarding the early hook after throwing just seventy pitches.

The veteran right-hander argued that his stellar regular-season performance warranted remaining in the high-pressure situation.
