Sox Lose A Game They Needed 4-3

It was a close game. It could have gone either way.

That's why I don't get why Jacoby Ellsbury is trying to steal 3B with 2 outs & Dustin Pedroia up with the Sox down 4-2. That was just dumb, Ells. And dumb plays cost you games.

You are already in scoring position. Why go for 3rd with 2 outs? It's not like you had the #9 batter up & you were trying to draw an errant throw. Mistakes like that cost you games when it's a tight game & you need to capitalize on the very few offensive opportunities you get.

Don't look for much from Wake tomorrow.
