It was bound to happen sooner or later. Boston's nine game winning streak came to an abrupt halt last night in Tampa, as the Red Sox fell to the Rays, 4-0. It just goes to show you that when you run into a hot goaltender, uh, I mean a solid starting pitcher, all bets are off. Even the best offense can be stymied by a guy that can make the glove save top-side. Uh, I mean that can locate all his pitches with precision.
