Ells Strikes Back

Broken record.  Sox lose to Yankees again, this time 8-5.  A sweep of the Sox by the Yankees at Fenway.  Jacoby Ellsbury reached base 6 times last night as the Yankees 1 through 6 hitters collected 11 hits.  Joe Kelly didn't make it out of the 5th.  Same old story when it comes to starting pitchers & inconsistency.  Sox were down 8-0 when they scored 5 in the 6th.  No final comeback as Big Papi made the last out with the bases loaded in the 9th.  Is there anything worse than being swept at home by the Yankees?  No.  Good thing there is another game tonight.  A win may help us forget this lost weekend.
