Bottom line is if Breslow didn’t self destruct, BOS most likely would have won game 2.

Multiple fielding errors had nothing to do with either team loss in the first two games.

Craig Breslow is our #2 most-trusted pitcher in the bullpen (behind our great closer Kohi Uehara). Even Manager John Farrell slipped recently during a post-game press conference and made the above statement. He then smiled, corrected himself, and said he shouldn't have said that, "I shouldn't arrange my bullpen pitchers by number", lol.

Breslow has been fantastic, but I think he has a tendency to get rattled once in awhile. Unfortunately that happened last night. He was just awful on the mound, and blew the potential 2-1 win for Lackey. Then that cringe-worthy overthrow to 3rd base, ugh! That resulted in an error to Breslow, and brought in the Cards' 4th run. And it killed momentum for the Red Sox, and knocked all the air out of Fenway Park.

GOPsterinMA is mostly referring above to trusted Breslow self-destructing on the mound last night. And that bad throw to third certainly didn't help...

Onto Game 3!

No game tonight so I can go to bed earlier and rest from what has not been a good day.
