Red Sox's Craig Kimbrel: Bounces back in Thursday's outing

Kimbrel pitched a perfect inning Thursday against the Pirates, striking out two batters.

Analysis:

His previous outing got out of control after he gave up a leadoff walk, but the Red Sox saw a much more focused Kimbrel on Thursday. He's looking to rebound from what was, by his standards, a sub-par 2016 in which the right-hander posted a 3.40 ERA and 2.97 FIP.
