Sox 4, Rays 5: Pipped

·1 min

I hate come-from-behind losses.

Just when things got good against Baez, things went bad. I expected the team to struggle against Kazmir - about the only “bad” game he’s had against the Sox was the one where he was ejected, and even then he had held the Sox hitless till then. But the D-Rays’ relief corps should be something to feast on, and the Sox did just that. Sadly, it seems Eduardo Perez has been on a power binge lately. (Whereas Alex Sanchez appears to have used his PEDs for such stunning displays of power as bunt singles…) Still, good show by Bellhorn today…

Some people have e-mailed to ask me about how I watch games, so here’s what I think: MLB.tv is great for live games. For archived games… eh… not so much. It’s basically a function of the fact that RealPlayer, which is only available for live games, streams the game nicely, while with Windows Media Player I usually end up watching frozen, if fairly high quality, images.
