Toronto Tramples Boston


TORONTO: 4 0 3 2 2 0 0 - 11 14 0
BOSTON: 2 0 1 0 0 1 1 - 5 7 0



The question is - if it had to rain on today's game, why couldn't it have rained during the third inning, not the seventh? That way, when the game was called, it wouldn't be an official game and the Boston Red Sox would not have started their final regular season homestand with a defeat. Or alternatively, that Boston be able to finish the rally they had begun. Instead, the Toronto Blue Jays contributed a pouring of runs at Fenway Park and Boston was ungraciously welcomed home. Coming off a .500 road trip, the Red Sox need to have a winning homestand to propel themselves into the postseason with a positive attitude. Hope Beckett's back gets better soon! And let's hope that Boston's last regular season Tuesday game fares better than their last regular Monday one. Still waiting to clinch the postseason.
