I am watching the game tonight and can’t help but wonder if there is a problem with the on-field audio at Fenway or if Red Sox Nation has lost it’s voice. There just does not seem that there is much crowd interaction. Could it be that they shot their bolt when Remdog was announced? Perhaps they can feel the end of the summer and the beginning of their off season
No, it’s just that the Sox disappointed their fans so much last night that even if they win the other games of this series that the Boston Massacre will remain on their minds.
