"This was Giolito's season debut game, and he'd been doing really well...until the sixth inning, when he gave up two home runs, and our lovable Garrett Whitlock added to the damage. The Red Sox then got walked off by the later that night. It had been a very winnable game, and then it wasn't. It was among the first of the several one-run losses the Sox have had this season. Big stinky."
"Ceddanne Rafaela was just starting to go on his Linsanity run and clubbed a walk-off two-run Pesky Pole homer in the bottom of the ninth. The game had been going all over the place scoreboard wise, so it was great to see the Sox get the dub. The win also prevented an Angels sweep at Fenway. We won 3-1 on 3 hits, in Seattle no less."
"This was a bad bullpen game that the Sox had lost by the second inning. No joy there. We were primed to get swept, but a Romy Gonzalez go-ahead grand slam turned the tables. The Phillies tied it back up, but the Sox were able to come out on top, even as the visiting team in extra innings. It felt great to get that win after the yuckiness that was the rest of that series."
Boston enjoyed a hot stretch before the All-Star break, including a 13-1 win at Minnesota secured by clean play. A poor bullpen outing produced an early loss by the second inning. A Romy Gonzalez go-ahead grand slam sparked an extra-inning road win over Philadelphia after the Phillies tied the game. Carlos Giolito’s season debut unraveled in the sixth when he surrendered two homers and Garrett Whitlock added to the damage, resulting in a walk-off defeat and one of several one-run losses. Ceddanne Rafaela hit a walk-off two-run Pesky Pole homer to prevent an Angels sweep. A 3-1 win in Seattle on three hits was paced by Marcelo Mayer and Trevor Story, and Crochet’s pitching compensated for minimal offense. One regular-season game remained before postseason coverage.
