O's Win, Hanley Subpar
The Baltimore Orioles used a familiar formula to beat the Red Sox 4-1 this afternoon. Good defense, good relief pitching & use of the long ball. A 2-1 O's lead in the 8th went to 4-1 on a Chris Davis homer over the monster off of Robbie Ross. For the Red Sox no one hit with RISP. But Hanley Ramirez had an all-around subpar day. He went 0-3 at the plate, swinging for terrible pitches & grounding out with men in scoring position. In LF he is a terrible fielder when any ball is close to the wall. He misplayed 2 more balls today & cost at least 1 run. Where's all that defensive work he did with Butterfield? When Hanley is hitting you can put up with his defense, but today he was not. I wonder where this LF experiment is going.
