After leading the universe in runs scored, the Red Sox came to the Inner Harbor and forgot how to cross home plate. Friday night, they were shut out by four different Bird pitchers in
a 2-0 loss that cut their division lead to just 1.5 games.
Chris Tillman took a two-hitter into the seventh and his bullpen did the rest. Two of the three Boston hits came from our resident offensive juggernaut—
Jose Iglesias. The shortstop went 2 for 4 and is now hitting .451. All together now, "
He's not going to hit .400 all year." Right.
Ryan Dempster pitched well enough to lose, going 7 2/3 solid innings and making one basic mistake on a HR to
Chris Davis.
