Streak Snapped

The Sox lost last night to the Devil Rays 4-2 ending an 8 game winning streak. The Twins also lost, keeping the Sox lead at 4 1/2 games, if there's anyone that cares this early in the season. The Sox came out strong, scoring 2 in the first inning, extending their lead streak by another game, but were shut down after that. Garcia gave up 4 runs on eight hits, and pitched a somewhat solid game until he got into trouble in the 6th and was not able to get out of the inning. Dye commited another error, his fourth of the season, letting a ball slip through the wickets turning a single into a triple for ex-Sock Chris Singleton who was 2-4 with 2 RBI. Tampa was fresh off of suffering a sweep by the Twins, and the Sox came in after completing two sweeps in a row and on an eight game streak, so both teams were due and I won't complain about being beat by the lowly D Rays.
Tonight Contreras (1-0 2.60 ERA) goes up against Hendrickson (1-1 3.55 ERA). Let's see the Sox bat's come back alive tonight, as they were north of the border, and get Jose to have a repeat of his last outing so we can get a new streak started this evening. Losing series to teams we should sweep is not what I want to start seeing out of this club. Hopefully, I won't.
