My doctor told me this morning that the medication for my herniated discs is known for causing cognitive and emotional issues. So if I say that my eyes brimmed with tears throughout this game, is that a reflection of the pain, the meds, or the state of play on the field?
Toronto scored quickly in the first and the Sox looked just as ineffectual as we’ve come to expect. Brayan Bello was inefficient in the early innings, going deep into counts yet not being able to put batters away. The Red Sox offense had the opposite problem: they were up then down way too quickly.
