I was able to watch a couple innings of tonight's Sox game. I watched intently as Jesse Crain tried to blow the 5-2 lead. Then I watched Addison Reed try to do the same thing. Luckily, both pitchers were able to hold onto the lead, which is a bit surprising, given how the bullpen has been performing lately.
Chris Sale had a strong outing, especially if you don't count the 2nd inning. Home runs from Conor Gillaspie and Alejandro De Aza gave the Sox the lead in the 7th, and they never looked back. The Sox were actually outhit 9-8 tonight, which makes me a feel a bit like they stole this one, but of course I'll take it.
Stat of the Day: The Sox only had one player in their lineup tonight who is hitting over .300. That player is.... Conor Gillaspie, at .323. The next best is Alexei Ramirez at .283, followed by Alex Rios at .276. Nobody else is above .240!!!
Record: 11-15
