May 4th is known widely as Star Wars Day because of the widespread pun “May the fourth be with you,” which is a play on well-known Star Wars saying “May the force be with you.” Tonight, May 4th was known in Boston as “We Lose to The Orioles Day.”
To begin the day, the Dan Duquette roster carousel spun yet again, bringing Gabriel Ynoa and Tyler Wilson to Boston in favor of Richard Bleier and Alec Asher. Wilson would get his first starting nod of the year, and Kyle Kendrick would get his first starting nod of any year since 2015 because The Red Sox finally placed the ineffective Stephen Wright on the disabled list.
