COMMENTARY
Bleak feelings about the future aren’t exactly constrained these days. The Red Sox have that going for them as the 2022 season drains out: They fit right in.
You like that flavor of optimism? You’re gonna love this: If you’re going to lose nine straight games at a ballpark, none feel as thematically appropriate as old Tropicana Field, a prison not even the Rays can escape.
And if you’re gonna do it, make it really hurt. This run began April 23 with a doozy, the Sox getting no-hit into the 10th inning and still managing to blow a lead.
