BOSTON: 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 - 4 8 2
BALTIMORE: 2 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 - 5 9 0
Well it was a walk-off day for the Boston Red Sox, unfortunately it was the Baltimore Orioles who had the walk-off run and the win of the opening game of the three-game series in Oriole Park. Despite the three homeruns, the Red Sox were unable to muster enough runs to continue their winning streak. And they are now back to fourth place in the AL East. What is happening (or not happening) with Boston's defense? At the end of April, Beltre has five errors and at this rate he's looking at thirty of them for the season. Not exactly the performance that Boston had in mind when they acquired him. It would be great if Lowell could get more playing time at third, but I know Boston would have a problem with that. Sometime this season Lowell will have a major positive impact on a game and I for one will be glad he's still around. In the meantime, the Red Sox play tomorrow and hope to even the series.
