I’m reaching the point of frustration. The Red Sox are striking out left and right again. The Cardinals lead 2-1 entering the bottom of the fifth inning. Peavy is out of the game. He was awful in the first, great in the second and third, and got out of a bases loaded no outs jam in the fourth. Dubront is on to pitch the fifth.
The strike outs are unbearable. This line up could make my grandmother look like Nolan Freakin’ Ryan. K after K after K after K.
Salty and Drew need to go away. Neither of them can even make contact at this point. It’s humiliating.
They finally got to Kelly in the top of the fifth though. Hopefully that is a sign that things are looking up for us here in game three.
Please, go Red Sox.
