It's like they are holding auditions to see who will be the Bill Buckner of the 2013 World Series.

The Sox better plug the holes in their defense. And wake up those bats. They are not on an even pitching playing field with the Cardinals. They have to rely on their strengths. It's not the time to let the 2nd worse team at stealing bases pull double steals on you.

The teams are rather evenly matched it's just that their strengths and weaknesses are in different areas of the game. The team who takes the World Series will be the team who finds a way to ramp up their strengths and cover up their weaknesses.

Last night that wasn't the Red Sox.

Lackey did pretty good balancing the pitching game even though arguably he was not the superior pitcher, but their strengths all but disappeared.
