It's March 30th, from the locker room to your ears. This is Boston Red Sox News today, powered by AI, on Cory with the story. Young lefty connolly, early grab headlines with a Boston Red Sox with a historic opening weekend start. At just 23 years old, he became the youngest sock starter since Babe Ruth, back in 1916, to hold opponents to one run or fewer. While fanning at least five batters in the team's first three games of the season, that feat puts him in rare company, highlighting how special this kid is early in his big league run. Stats like this don't come around often for someone his age, and it's got folks buzzing about his potential. Early is no rookie to the spotlight. He started the University of Virginia, and even tossed in a postseason game last year. Red Sox fans in Brass see him as a cornerstone piece for years to come. In that debut against the Cincinnati Reds this season, he went five and one-third innings, surrendering just one run on five hits. He punched out six and issued only two free passes, keeping the damage low.

Early is off to a strong start, and if he builds on this, Boston's got a rotation anchor locked in for the long haul.
