AAAAARRGH. The Sox good news streak has ended at….1 day in a row. They can’t seem to put together a string of good news or a string of wins(except for the sweep of the Mariners, but, everybody beats the Mariners, so that’s not so special).
And then there are the Angels. They swept the Sox in Disneyland. We were hoping that the Fenway series would turn out differently, but so far..not so much. The Angels did most of their damage in the 6th inning. Kotchman: homer in the 6th, Torii Hunter: homer in the 6th, Mathis: SAC RBI in the 6th. That’s right people, 6 runs in the 6th. 666. The Angels are looking more like los Diablos.
The Red Sox did get 11 hits in the game to Anaheim’s 9, but the Angels found a way to drive their runners in, while the Sox left theirs stranded. K-Rod was shutting down the Sox in order in the 9th,when Manny came to the plate. Manny answered the boos from the crowd with a shot over the monster to bring the Sox to within 2. But K-Rod closed it out, leaving Sox fans wondering if our squad has what it takes to compete with the Angels in the postseason.
