There’s no excuse not to win this series!
The Red Sox have lost five in a row, ten of their last 13, and 18 of their last 27 games. If they had merely gone 14-13 in that 27 game stretch, they would be just a half game being KC, and one game behind Minnesota, only needing to pass one of them for a playoff spot.
Instead, they now need a miracle run to close the season.
The good news? Perhaps the worst team in the history of modern baseball will be in the opposing dugout tonight.
How bad are they? Try 5-42 in their last 47 games!!!
There’s also this:
The AL Central is 38 games under .500.
The AL Central has five teams. Four of them are over .500.
