The Boston Red Sox have hit a little bit of a slump as they have now lost four games in a row. Today’s game against the Baltimore Orioles seen the Orioles score six runs combined in the sixth in seventh inning as the Red Sox lost 6-3. They just couldn’t hold onto the lead…
Starting pitcher Jon Lester pitched six innings while giving up five hits and two runs. He struckout four batters while only walking two. Lester ended up getting the no decision in the game as the bullpen couldn’t hold the lead after he left the game.
Javier Lopez pitched 2/3 of an inning and gave up one run. After Lopez left the game, Craig Hansen gave up two more runs without recording an out and also took the loss in the game. Hideki Okajima followed Hansen and and gave up one run as well. The bullpen just sucked it up today, nothing else to really blog about.
Dustin Pedroia got the Red Sox scoring started in the first inning with a rbi single. Then in the fifth inning Jason Varitek hit a solo home run. Mike Lowell also hit a solo home run in the game as he went deep in the sixth inning.
The Red Sox will get a much needed off day on Thursday and then they will play the Milwaukee Brewers in a interleague series.
