When characters from
The Blues Brothers start hitting home runs off your pitching staff, you've got problems, The immortal
Jake Elmore (OK,OK, but it's close enough) clouted his first career round-tripper last night to cap
an improbable Rays 7-5 comeback win over the Red Sox. Boston was cruising with a 5-1 lead into the sixth inning when
Joe Kelly—as is his reputation—
completely fell apart. Four hits and a bases-load walk later and he was out of the game.
Craig Breslow came in and gave up the game-tying hit. After that, it was an inevitable loss in the
House Of Horrors that
is the
MostPulpDome. The Red Sox got offensive firepower from
Dustin Pedroia (2-run HR) and
David Ortiz (solo HR).
Mookie Betts also had an RBI single in the fifth. All in all, an horrific loss—indicative of the
mess that is the Red Sox pitching staff (from top to bottom).
