“IV Yawkey Way”

My Sandwich was way better than the Red Sox tonight

So I was done with a long day at work and I suited up for a late night jog. It was 11:15 Eastern and I saw that the Sox had built a 4-0 lead going to the bottom half of the 4th. Jog over, sandwich finished and some dvr’d Daily Show watched, I checked again at about 1am and the game was over. The score: 5-4, Mariners.

So my high-flying mood a bit deflated, I see that Boston’s starter, Jon Lester, glided through the first 4 innings and then gave up 1 in the 5th and 4 in the 6th. The Sox could not tie it up or go ahead. An increasingly frustrating (and frustrated) David “Big Papi” Ortiz sat out the game after an 0 for 7 gasser the day before in Anaheim. Meanwhile the Yankees keep winning and are now 2.5 games behind Boston (4.5 behind division-leading Toronto).

What can I say, not great baseball by the Red Sox right now.
