The Red Sox have a big series this week against the Blue Jays, who entered this night 1.5 games behind Boston for the division. It’s a little early to pay too much attention to the standings, but it’s still a series you want to win. The Red Sox didn’t get a good start to this goal. It was a battle of staff aces, and Hyun Jin Ryu won easily. He had Boston’s offense off-balanace all night, while the Toronto offense was all over Eduardo Rodriguez with a ton of hard-hit singles and doubles — 18 hits total — largely abusing the right field in Dunedin.
