Is it 2011?

Simply handing away a 5-0 lead with awful defense and dead bats. Way to go.

 

I only find solace in Pedroia's bald spot. His big "safe" sign upon crossing the plate... wooooo for you, Dustin. What a play you made?

Oh, he's great. Tonight was an embarrassment, but you have to blame the pitching and defense way before the bats, yeah?

 

I'm just proud that we were able to survive Boston's apparent national holiday and subsequently blatant favoritism for eight innings before they finally lost.

 

And the defense will be leaps and bounds improved in a few weeks, we're hoping. This is the worst of it.
