Absolutely pathetic

Sporting Goods

The Red Sox 4-9 hitters today:

4. John Olerud
5. Bill Mueller
6. Kevin Millar
7. Alex Cora
8. Doug Mirabelli
9. Adam Stern

Unbelievable. What is the difference between this 4-9 and the 4-9 on the worst offense in the league? Let's look:

4. Richie Sexson
5. Adrian Beltre
6. Jeremy Reed
7. Willie Bloomquist
8. Jose Lopez
9. Miguel Olivo

I'll take the Mariners lineup, the lowest scoring in the AL, any day over today's shoddy Sox lineup.

Update: Perfect. The Sox normal 1-3 batters (Damon-Edgar-Papi) load the bases with no outs. Up comes the B team, and the Sox exit the inning with only one run.
