Boston Red Sox starter Nathan Eovaldi threw on the wrong side of history Tuesday in a 13-4 loss to the Houston Astros . (Watch the video below.)

Noting that the Astros didnt miss, Eovaldi became the third major-league pitcher to surrender five home runs in the same inning, CBS Sports noted .

Houstons Yordan Alvarez, Kyle Tucker, Jeremy Pena, Michael Brantley and Yuli Gurriel took Eovaldi deep in the second inning as the boos intensified at Fenway Park.

In the past, I feel every time Ive faced the Astros, they came out swinging, and try to jump on the fastball, Eovaldi said, per ESPN . I was able to locate it in the first, had a quick first inning. Tried to do the same thing the second inning, and they didnt miss.
