I'm Corey with the story.

The Boston Red Sox dropped an 8-6 decision to the Milwaukee Brewers at Fenway Park on

Monday night, sitting at two wins and eight losses.

Early in the season, first baseman Wilson Contreras got plunked on the knuckles by the

first pitch from Brewer's starter, Brandon Woodruff, in the third inning.

That's the.

Six time Woodruff's hit him and the 24th from a Brewer's hurler overall.

Contreras spired up right away, yelling at Woodruff while his brother William, the Brewer's

catcher, walked him too first.

Later, with bases loaded, he slid hard into second on a grounder, ripping shortstop David

Hamilton's pants and breaking up a potential double play.

Despite the drama, Contreras had a huge night, reaching base in all five played appearances,

including his second homer that pulled the socks within two.

Fans and players are buzzing over Contreras' long-standing beef with Milwaukee, one of

baseball's top teams.

Postgame, he warned the Brewer straight up, next time they hit him, he's taking someone

out.

Woodruff called it Contreras, trying to fire up his squad every year, and outfielder

Christian Yelich, dismissed it as the same old routine after A.

Decade.

Tensions are high with the Red Sox desperate for a spark.

Game two features Garrett Crochet on the mound for Boston against Milwaukee's Jacob

Missy Yorowski, first pitch at 6.45pm Eastern.

I...wild.
