They got swept.

The Red Sox lost yesterday and again today. With those two losses, they are now 4½ games out of the wildcard.

They are losing at home and I find that upsetting.

Tomorrow they will play a historic game. It is a game against the Blue Jays that they started on June 26^th before the skies opened and it poured buckets. They got one inning in and then the game was called.

When the game was called, the batter at the plate was the Blue Jays catcher, Danny Jansen.

On July 27^th the Blue Jays traded Danny Jansen to the Red Sox.

When that suspended game starts back up tomorrow at 2:00, the Red Sox catcher will be Danny Jansen.

That means for the first time in MLB history, one player will play for both teams in a single game.

They might not make the playoffs but they'll have that bit of history going for them.

Then again, maybe not...

The Patriots will take on the Commanders this evening at 8:00.

I'm not entirely sure who the Patriots quarterback will be but I suspect they will start Brissett.

Whether Brissett will be the starter on September 8^th is anyone's guess. Both Zappe and Maye are making their case to be the starter and Mayo might just give it to one of them.

Then again, the more I think about it, it would probably be a good thing for Zappe if they cut him. He could then sign with a team that will play him instead of sitting him on the sidelines.
