My Comment: Not the way the Boston Red Sox should have ended the first "half" of the season. The team is back to .500 and will face tough teams on their return from the All-Star break. I'm trying not to feel despair, but I think this will be another non-postseason year for the Red Sox. I hope I am completely wrong! On a brighter note, congratulations to David Ortiz for making the American League All-Star team and I wish him a wonderful time in Kansas City.
