At least it was a beautiful day at Fenway Park, right, Red Sox fans?
That’s about the only thing good about what happened for Boston as it dropped its home opener 8-4 in a largely uninspired performance against the Twins.
Though the Sox did muster a late rally in the eighth inning, it was ultimately too little too late as the offense struggled against Minnesota starter Joe Ryan and made too many mistakes on the mound and in the field to keep the Twins in check.
Boston fell to 3-4 on the season with the loss, which seemed both to recall issues the team faced last season as well as paint the team’s current problems in stark relief.
