The Boston Red Sox opened with a 9-3 loss to the Washington Senators as Sonny Siebert struggled in his Boston debut. Siebert allowed seven hits and five runs in four innings while striking out seven, with nerve and lack of pitch mixing cited by pitching coach Darrell Johnson. Ted Williams watched Joe Coleman and the Senators capitalize on a rough third inning, and Ken McMullen homered in the seventh. The Red Sox, now 0-1, await Jim Lonborg to start in Detroit on Friday.
