The Red Sox blew a 4 run lead today & lose 3 straight games to a very good Angels team. The Sox were outpitched, outhit & outscored for the 3rd consecutive game. The playoff curse for the Angels is over.
This is an ugly ending to the 2009 Boston season. Inconsistent hitting was the biggest problem in Games 1 & 2. But today it was Jonathan Papelbon squarely wearing the choke collar. He picked a bad time for a bad game. The Angels score 3 times in the 9th with 2 outs against Pap to win in dramatic style 7-6 & move onto the ALCS against the Yankees or Twins.
Red Sox players & fans will remember this one for awhile.
