So the Red Sox finally lose a game. It took six months and a day, but the mighty Red Sox finally went down. I thought it might keep going, but then again, nothing lasts forever. Even the offseason.
What we saw was an OK Ryan Dempster with a stagnant offense. We won the previous game when letting up four runs, but the offense couldn't come through this time. I'll give props to the Yankees' pitchers last night, whose average age was 41.5 years old. I didn't know it was "Turn Back The Clock Night" at Yankee Stadium, but I guess Pettitte and Rivera had their own ideas. Lets just hope that this is a blip in the road, and the offense can keep producing at a high level for the rest of the season.
Dempster didn't really give us a clear idea of who he is going to be in Boston. Last year, with the Cubs, he was a great, bordering on elite, pitcher. When he switched over to the American League with the Rangers, he became a terrible, borderline Minor League, pitcher. Last night, he was kind of half way through. He gave up the lead early, but there was not too much bleeding after that.
