We're the worst team in the majors... sick

I mean I guess its fitting that the last pro team to allow a black player on their team, should lose on Jackie Robinson day, but this is getting silly.

We had this game. Homers from Dusty and Youk carved out a 3-0 lead. Buccholz pitched his way to a no-decision and then Bobby Jenks threw it all away, giving up four runs in the seventh.

The Sox would come back thanks to another clutch hit from Marco Scutaro, who's had two of our most timely hits of the season, which is extremely depressing.

We were down one headed into the bottom of the 9th with the top of our lineup coming up. That's as good as you can set it up. But if anyone took a bathroom break right then the game was probably over by the time they got back. They went down without a struggle. Crawford looked at 3 strikes, Dusty grounded to short, and Gonzo to first. Done.

Everyone, including Theo, keeps saying at some point we have to worry about getting ourselves in a hole we can't dig ourselves out of. If we aren't there yet we're certainly sinking there fast.
