2 out of 3 isn't good enough

For my friends who think I am being cynical about the Red Sox 2010 chances and that I am already looking towards 2011, let me present today's game.

Beckett was great for 5 then got hammered and the Red Sox not only lost but it wasn't even a teeth grinder.

They took 2 of 3 from the Angels... and it wasn't good enough.

They needed to SWEEP in order to even keep pace with the Yankees.

In trying to make up nearly a week of games with a month and a half to go, they need a 5 or 6 game winning streak... winning series is inadequate.

2 out of 3 might be fine for Meat Loaf, but not for the 2010 Red Sox.
