Games 1 and2 vs Boston

Two consecutive losses to Boston has really hurt the O's. Game 1 featured great games from ace Jeremy Guthrie and Aubrey Huff who hit his 27th and almost got number 28 but ended up with a double off the wall. Lester pitched great for Boston and they won 6-3. Huff had all 3 Rbi for the Birds. Boston had 3 homeruns 2 by newly aquired Jason Bay who appears to be Manny Ramirez without the dreadlocks. Game 2 was not a good outing from the big righty Cabrera who struggled and the Birds only tariling by one could not get any closer and ended losing 7-2 allowing 2 homeruns and not hitting any long balls. Waters goes tommorow for the Birds who will fetaure a couple new starters as Olson and Sarfate move to the pen where hopefully they can pitch less and better. They face a struggling stareer in Clay Bucholz who hopefully they can score early adn often and rake the finale vs Boston. Waters has had two good goes and a bad outing and I think he should do well in this very high pressure situation. The O's need a win badly and I believe they will win the finale.
