Game Twenty Three: Nobody Loves You (When You're Down and Out)

Riding high on a three game win streak and a day off, the Red Sox were laid low by Baltimore last night, 5-4. JD Drew untied the game with his second homer of the night in the 8th, but ancient Miguel Tejada retied it in the bottom half off of Danny Boy. Tejada won in in the 10th with a base hit, and Boston finished April 11-12.

For those of you scoring at home, or if you're by yourself, (h/t Keith Olbermann) that makes the first sub .500 April for Boston since 1996. Not exactly auspicious beginnings, one might say.
