Rangers - 005 310 001 - 10 13  0
Red Sox - 000 100 303 -  7 14  0
Highlight of the game: Hearing "Kiss Me On The Bus" while Burke Badenhop was warming up in the third.

    Also out at the Bosox Club luncheon in Dedham, selling books. Luis Tiant was one of the speakers and got to meet him for 5 seconds afterwards. (He did not buy a book.)

    That game was a pile of garbage. Seemingly every Rangers hit went juuuust past a diving Red Sox player, and every time the Sox got someone on base they hit into a double play. I couldn't stomach any more in the sixth inning (after the fifth double play) so maybe things changed from there, but still, yuck.

    It was one of those games where the final score did not tell the story. At one point it was 9-1. That captures the feel of the game.

    (But I had a great time, of course. So happy to be there!)

    I guess it was only 5 GIDP, but felt like many more. Surprised the Sox didn't hit into 2 in one inning.
