We’re in the last month(ish, I know some October games) of the season. The Red Sox have been bad for two months. June was the start of summer and things looked good. Now summer ends and it’s been miserable after all. But not without bright spots.
Rich Hill had one of the best performances of his life last time out. He absolutely dominated the Tampa Bay Rays for seven innings. Three hits, one walk, 11 strikeouts. No runs. And against a lineup that started nine right-handed hitters. The Rays were ready to pounce and Rich Hill shut them down.
