Red Sox-Marlins 

Red Sox-Marlins

I promise not to rant excessively about the Red Sox on this site, but I must have a few words on this weekend. So the Red Sox destroy Florida Friday night, Marlins manager complains they run up the score, the Red Sox take it easier on them when they go up 9-2 the following night, and Florida comes back to win 10-9. These "unwritten rules" of baseball are a load of crap. I agree with what Sox owner John Henry (former Marlins owner) said in the Globe today: the team should continue trying to score runs no matter what. People paid lots of money to go to the game Friday, and the team owes them a full effort to get to 30 runs. Otherwise they may as well put a sign on the scoreboard that says, "You may as well go home now, we're not trying to score any more."
