What is it with ex-University of Maryland Terrapins? First, former Terp
Mike Shawaryn performed extremely well for the Red Sox in two relief stints. Then, ex-Terp
Brandon Lowe was
'Ruthian' in his first Fenway Park series—yesterday clouting two home runs and knocking in three for the Rays in
the eventual 6-1 loss to Tampa. In any event, the Red Sox are again looking like a .500 ballclub—with the loss dropping them down to 34-32 (7 games behind both Tampa and
The Evil Ones). The Boston 'offense' was nowhere to be found—although multi-hit games were turned in by
Jackie Bradley, Jr.,
Sandy Leon and
Marco Hernandez. All in all, though—thanks to a crappy outing by starter
Eduardo Rodriguez—
The Carmine Hose really had no chance against Cy Young Winner
Blake Snell.
