Can't complain when you have an easy win, but there were a couple of times the Sox could have blown this open and the top of the order couldn't get it done.  Everyone but Kike had a hit but Kike had a Walk, a run and an RBI.  Only Bogey and Devers had neither an RBI or scored a run, although they each picked up a hit.  Once again, Devers wants to kill every pitch he sees and Bogey swings like he's still babying that wrist. 

Barnes looked shaky, but he seemed to settle down a little.  Still, I forgot who it was to but he threw a hanging curve ball first pitch but the batter was sitting on fast ball.  Then he grooved a straigh fastball over the plate.  Anyone in the Toronto, Tampa or NYY lineup would have cleaned one of those out.  The bullpen is tough to watch, but strangely effective lately.  It's not a great feeling!

But a win is a win, Sox are in the top slot for the WC and they've got Baltimore on the menu again.
