In what turned out to be an interesting contest, the Baltimore Orioles defeated the Red Sox in a shocker. The Red Sox have been in poor form this season with Ryan Mountcastle hitting three-run home runs for the Orioles. Even though the Orioles lost 107 games, they won two in three games against Boston. Thus, the Red Sox team is in big trouble and many fans are angry with the team’s performance.

THE BOSTON RED SOX LOST TO THE ORIOLES IM SCREAMING!!!
hey Red Sox that's a nice season you guys have there would be a shame if someone... spoiled it
The Toronto Blue Jays are STILL in the thick of the Wild Card race. A sweep of the Baltimore Orioles combined with 1 Seattle Mariners loss and 1 Boston Red Sox loss would mean a three-way tie for the 2nd Wild Card spot. If the Yankees lose all three remaining games it’s a 4-way.
Good morning to everyone except the Boston Red Sox baseball club.
Friday morning positivity. If you told me back in February that the Red Sox would be tied for a Wild Card spot going into the final series of the season, I would've signed up for that ten times out of ten. Win today.
Legitimately embarrassing. It’s not over and the Red Sox can still make the postseason, but losing two out of three to the Orioles in the final week of the season is pathetic. They had the chance to control their destiny and they blew it. No outcome from here will surprise me.
Moreover, as Boston trail the Yankees by 1 1/2 games, their hopes of reaching the playoffs are in doubt. Kike Hernandez homered on the first pitch. Despite that, the Red Sox could not muster up a good performance against the Orioles.
Cora remains unfazed
Head coach Alex Cora spoke about the troubles his team faced but remained positive.
“I stayed up all [Wednesday] night watching Seattle and Oakland, and then you start looking around and you’re like, ‘Wow, this is fun, this is stressful. All of the above. That’s why you sign up to play baseball, for a chance to make it to the playoffs. Is it perfect? No, it’s not perfect. You want to win the division. But this is where you’re at, and not every year do you have a chance to compete and have a chance to make it to the playoffs,” said Cora.
Any time the Red Sox hit a ball on the ground it’s directly at a guy. Any time someone hits a ground ball against the Red Sox the camera flips to show you the largest gap you ever did see.
I do believe these last few Red Sox games are going to feel like someone attached a waffle iron to my nuts.
Thus, this incredible team would be looking to their past to revisit their glory days. Their playoff hopes are coming down to the final weekend. Even though an automatic promotion seems unlikely, the Red Sox can enter the postseason by entering the wildcard.
After not being able to win a series against Baltimore Orioles, the worst team in the league, they would hope to come back stronger. Hence, time will tell whether they can muster up a good performance.
