If you ain't first, you're last. And that's how all Red Sox fans feel about Clay Buchholz. This man can not pitch decently for his life. He is either god right awful or a CY Young candidate. He needs to take lessons from Price, maybe try being a lefty so he can fucking pitch well and consistently. It is the first game of the season and he went 4 innings giving up 6 hits, 5 earned runs, and 3 walks. He now has an 11.25 era. This is going to be a long season.
The only exciting of this game was seeing the Red Sox bats wake up. They showed their potential in a game down to the wire. Brock Holt showed why he is a brockstar and worth being a starter. The Dominican Smash Brothers (credit to Carrabis) is now a thing too. David Ortiz and Hanley Ramirez went back to back for the first of hopefully many. Papi hit his 505th home run which put him ahead of HOFer Eddie Murray now into 26th all time. Big Papi is a baller and shows no mean of slowing down this season. To all the critics who thought he would not do well this season because of his age, thank you. You just put more wood inside of the burning fire that inspires Big Papi to play. He goes hard until the last out. One of the best so take these last great moments in.
The bullpen was not too much of a help either giving up two runs, one of them being the winning one over 4 innings. The Red Sox got the first loss out of the way and now can go on their 160 game winning streak.
Final: Indians 7 - Red Sox 6
