Anthony's Sophomore Slump Deepens in Astros Loss

Published April 1, 2026 · Updated April 1, 2026 · Yahoo Sport

Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony has deepened his sophomore slump, going 0‑4 with four strikeouts in a 4‑game stretch that included a loss to the Houston Astros.

Anthony, 21, entered the 2026 season after a dominant World Baseball Classic and a strong rookie campaign. He cracked three hits on Opening Day but has gone 1‑17 with 10 strikeouts over his last four games, including a 0‑4, four‑strikeout outing against Houston.

The 71‑game veteran has been hitless in his last 14 at‑bats with nine strikeouts, raising questions about his confidence and the Red Sox lineup's overall funk. He started last year slowly and may need time to adjust as the league adapts to him.
