Leadoff hitter on, heart of the order due up, 5th string reliever on the mound ... and for the fifth time tonight not a single ball advances a runner or even leaves the IF.

What color is the sky in a world where all your relievers have sub-5% BB rates? Cuz everyone the BoSox trotted out there tonight have been in the 3-5% range.

Patrick McCarthy just described the Mets offense as a bunch of Oprah groundouts.

In a season full of embarrassing losses, this may have been the worst.
