We were swept by the Angels and really, none of the games were even that close. We are in a big time slump and need to do something quick or we could miss the playoffs entirely.
The first game we lost 7-5 and DiceK got ripped for 6 runs in 5+ innings. He pitched to 5 batters in the 6th and couldn't get anyone out. It always seems he runs into one trouble inning per game. Only this time he couldn't get out of it. Manny did hit a solo home run with 2 out in the ninth but it wasn't enough.
The second game we lost 6-2. Lackey had a no hitter going into the 9th until little Dustin came up and got a base hit. Then Youk hit a home run to put us on the board. Buchholz didn't have it tonight as he went 6.1 innings and gave up 5 earned runs.
We lost the last game of the series 9-2 as Beckett looks horrible only going 5.1 innings and giving up 7 earned runs. Manny went 0-3 in what could be his last game in a sox jersey. I watched his final at bat and told everyone this could be his last time with us. The trade deadline is tomorrow, we will see how it unfolds...
