Matsuzaka loses to Cubs, drops to 0-2
Daisuke Matsuzaka - S - Boston Red Sox
June 15, 2012 - 5:25 PM ET

Daisuke Matsuzaka gave up three runs over six innings Friday in a loss to the Cubs.

It's the same old Dice-K: Matsuzaka walked three and then gave up a two-run double in the first inning. He never walked another batter and he ended up retiring 13 of the final 14 batters he faced, but the damage was already done. Even though he's looked good for the most part, Matsuzaka has a 5.73 ERA after two starts.
