## Resource

Connelly Early’s hot start for the Red Sox is cooling off fast—his ERA’s spiked in June after a brutal stretch of long balls and shaky outings. Since his first homer allowed in April, he’s surrendered 14 more, turning early-season ace vibes into mounting pressure. But Early’s staying grounded, embracing the ups and downs and focused on bouncing back. With injuries hitting the rotation, the team’s counting on him to reclaim his form if they’re to make a playoff push. Can he turn it around?
