It sucks but it is possible to come out ahead here. The team is 5-5 despite getting piss all from their 2, 3 and 5 hitters. Not gonna score many runs with those spots in the lineup providing nothing. Vlad and Santander have the track record to put it together, and the former loves hitting at Fenway. Kirk needs to pull it together, his consistently awful ABs with runners on has been pissing me off. There were so many instances of him coming up in a big spot and striking out in a bad way, popping it up or hitting a weak groundball. Pull it together Kirk!
Despite the brutal result the pitching held their own in New York. It's probably gonna be slugfests rather than pitching duels since Fenway contests always play out like a Coors lite when these two teams are involved. The offense needs to wake up, from the power department especially.
