After a couple of relatively easy wins to take a 2-1 lead in the ALCS, the Red Sox came back with a frustrating one on Tuesday. Despite holding a lead for much of the evening, they failed to add insurance, leaving them vulnerable to a couple of bad pitches, and a couple of bad calls, being enough for a loss and an evened-up series. Here are some scattered thoughts on the loss.
- To me, the number one story of this game was the lack of finishing from the Red Sox offense. They went 0-9 with runners in scoring position on the day.
