Suarez credits mechanical tweak after consecutive 7-inning gems

Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Ranger Suarez delivered his second consecutive seven-inning gem on Saturday, allowing just one run on five hits while striking out eight batters in a 5-1 Boston Red Sox victory over the Kansas City Royals at Fenway Park. The only blemish was a solo home run by Carter Jensen in the sixth inning, projected at 386 feet. Suarez credited mechanical adjustments for his recent strong performances, which also included seven scoreless innings in Baltimore the previous Friday for his sixth win of the season.
