This is awful. Francoma may have cost us the trip to the World Series by not sending Lugo... He did send Lugo on the 3rd DP. Pedroia hit the ball hard right at the second baseman shading up the middle. A frustrating DP.

I have to give Lofton his due for running hard on what looked to be an easy pop out.

I have been a fan since I was a boy the 60s. The “Red Sox Nation” folks don’t understand the pessimistic fatalism of the old time fans.
Error by Lugo. Ouch.

Sox are completely devoid of any spark right now. Seems like the bats have gone to sleep.
