Tonight the Red Sox continue their roller coaster season and tonight the Sox were pretty bad.
Jarrod Parker of the A's shut down the Red Sox for 6.2 innings and only allowed 4 hits. The Sox just couldn't hit the guy. However, in Red Sox form the bats awoken late. The Oakland bullpen wavered but didn't collapse completely as Mike Aviles drove in two runs in the 9th, but the Sox came up short of a comeback.
Cody Ross had the only extra-base hits, while David Ortiz drove in the other Sox run on a groundout. King Felix Doubront got roughed up a bit, he had 8 ks, which is good, but gave up 5 runs on 2 walks and 6 hits. Nothing special here. I have a feeling that the Sox secretly want Doubront to struggle so they can replace him instead of Bard.
Also, Salty let up 4 SBs
