Ugly! and Interesting News

First, the ugly! I'll keep this as short as possible. Yesterday the Hose got slaughtered by the Rangers, 18-3. Things started off well enough, with Pedey driving a two-run shot over the wall for a quick two zip lead. You figured with Lester pitching, things had to look pretty good for the Sox. WRONG! Texas wasted no time at all in retaking the lead, with a homer of their own, plus some other hits. When the dust finally settle, 6 hurlers had labored for the Sox, giving up a like number of HR's and 21 hits in all. Not pretty. Hopefully, things will be better with JB taking the ball today.
Separately, the Evil Empire has announced that, in honor of the Centennial celebration of Fenway this Friday, they'll wear throwback uniforms from the era. Saw them online and they look pretty good (for a Yankees uni). Actually, the Yankees of that year were still playing as the Highlanders, changing to the present name the following year.
