Red Sox 2, Yankees 4: Well, they kept them under eight
Brad Penner-USA TODAY Sports Another day, another loss. This one was at least of a different variety as the Red Sox pitching was actually mostly fine. Chris Mazza did give up four runs in three innings, but he was a little better than that. Then, led by Ryan Weber, the bullpen tossed five scoreless frames. These are the games the Red Sox are supposed to win, but the offense failed to get that message. They were totally hapless against JA Happ (I hate myself more for that sentence than you hate me, I promise), managing a solo homer from Kevin Pillar and a late rally, but one that was not enough. In the end, it’s just another loss to make it seven in a row.
