Sloooooow Start For the Sox

Maybe Jerry Remy knew what was coming when he called in sick for this one, or maybe the new hats were to blame. The Remdawg’s replacements by committee on NESN did little to help Red Sox fans navigate through a rough outing by the Red Sox. Rex Hudler’s brutal announcing led the Globe’s Chad Finn to post this on Twitter:

Sloooooow Start For the SoxI’m pretty sure Rex Hudler once had a pizza delivered while in Mr. Hand’s class.


Wake got knocked around early and often giving up 6 hits and 3 earned runs in 6 innings but he did keep the team in the game. He had 4 K’s in the game putting him at 1911 for his career. Be sure to enter the Wake 2000 K contest. Masterson was a disaster in relief giving up 4 hits and 3 earned runs in one inning (ERA of 13.50).

The Red Sox bats were sporadic throughout the night; Jacoby and Youk each had a pair of hits and Papi drove in a run but they had a hard time getting an extended rally going. The team is now 1-3 for the season.

The Good: Ellsbury 2-4 with 2 runs scored and 1 steal
The Bad: Masterson 3 earned runs in the 7th.
The Ugly: Lowrie 0-4 with 3 more LOB and a woeful .067 average
