After all, I brought a lifetime 5-1 playoff record to Fenway last night. I recognized that the Angels pitching was excellent - and that our offense can [...]
I admit it. The primary reason I root for Jed Lowrie is my assumption (read: hope) that if he plays well enough, I won’t have to watch Lugo anymore. That’s not the only reason, of course.
