Unfortunately, the Sox were on the wrong end of the 1-0 score last night.
Oritz popped weakly to third to end the game. Papi's average in the 8th and 9th innings with a chance to tie or take the lead was like .340 last year. This year, it's only .180 with no homers and no RBIs.
Gotta hand it to the Cleveland starter, tho. Fausto Carmona is the guy that the Sox torched twice in 3 nights last year when he was the closer:

I'm glad he bounced back after that and that he's having a good year (13-4), but the Sox could've used that game last night.
