Boston Red Sox lefty Eduardo Rodriguez will have to wait a little longer before returning to a big league mound. The Red Sox on Friday scratched Rodriguez as their opening day starter because of a “dead arm.“ Nathan Eovaldi will instead face the Baltimore Orioles at Fenway Park on April 1. Arizona starter Madison Bumgarner gave up six runs on four hits and three walks in 5 1/3 innings, striking out seven. Taylor Hearn allowed a run in three innings, striking out five with three hits and three walks. Ryan Weathers gave up three runs, three hits and two walks in 2 2/3 innings, striking out four.
