Yesterday was quite literally one of the most appalling, astounding, frustrating, infuriating Red Sox games I’ve ever seen in my life.

I’m just glad I left early.

If you were fortunate enough to miss it, the Sox blew a 6-1 lead, and the multiple closer leads, finally losing 11-10 to the Rays in extra innings. They had four errors in this absolutely unacceptable loss, and lead all of MLB with 97 errors on the season.

Red Sox Pitcher Today: Eduardo Rodriguez

Eduardo Rodriguez has a 4.88 ERA over 26 starts this season, but has been much better lately than his season totals would indicate.

Since the beginning of August, he has a 2.73 ERA over six starts, and has gone five or more innings in all but one of those games. He is coming off one of his best starts of the season, a six-inning shutout in which he only allowed four hits and a walk, and struck out six.

While he’s gotten an average of 5.03 runs of support from the lineup in his starts, the real test of this game will be if the Red Sox can tighten up their sloppy defense, which cost them Monday’s game more than any other issue.
