This team still seems like
The Raiders Of The Lost Offense—and don't think the absence of
David Ortiz is not having an effect on this lineup. The Red Sox "backed"
Chris Sale's brilliant seven-inning effort with a solo HR and an RBI groundout en route to
a 2-1 victory over Tampa. The tall, thin lefty delivered twelve strikeouts, while yielding just three hits. His ERA is now 1.25. The "offense" was paced by
Mitch Moreland (3-4, including the HR and another of his MLB-leading doubles).
Matt Barnes and
Craig Kimbrel finished off the eighth and ninth, respectively, in clean enough fashion.
