Things were going swimmingly. The Red Sox were up 4-0 and
David Price was cruising into the eighth inning (we are ignoring
Dave O'Brien's clear jinxing of things by mentioning this at the start of the eighth inning). Then, the deluge. Price (all of a sudden) can't get anyone out and exits trailing 4-2. New reliever
Fernando Abad—brought on to be a late-inning lefty specialist—coughs up a three-run HR to a lefty. Game. Set. Match.
Mariners win, 5-4.
Hanley Ramirez did hit his 14th HR—but then he injured his wrist heading into the clubhouse. All in all, a capital night for your
Carmine Hose!
