The Caridnals and Red Sox split the first two games of the World Series in Boston. With Adam Wainwright struggling on the mound, the Red Sox jumped all over the ace, knocking him around, scoring five runs before the conclusion of the second inning. It was surprising watching the Cardinals struggle so badly and watching Wainwright, one of baseball's most dominant pitchers, get hit. David Ortiz uncorked a two-run shot, continuing the Red Sox's relentless attack on Cardinals' pitching.
In Game 2, the Cardinals jumped out to a 1-0 lead. Lost their slim advantage as Ortiz knocked his 17th career postseason home run. With Papi on the bench, there was nothing he could do to help the Red Sox on defense. Craig Breslow and Jarrod Saltalamacchia combined for two errors in the seventh inning, which led to two runs and the Red Sox once again trailed in this game. Then, a supposedly injured Carlos Beltran sent a soft liner to right field, scoring the Cardinals' fourth run and giving them insurance.
Carlos Martinez saw the Red Sox threaten in the eighth inning after allowing runners to reach first and secnd. However, in that same inning, Martinez struck out two Red Sox, redeeming himself and then got the dangerous Mike Napoli to popup to shortstop for the final out of the inning. It was Cardinals' clutch hitting and young pitching that led the to victory on Thursday evening.
The Red Sox will hope that the ALDS Jake Peavy, who went 5.2 innings allowing only one run, takes the mound against the Cardinals. Joe Kelly, the Cardinals' starter will take the ball and try to pitch the way he did in his first two postseason starts in 2013. He did not allow more than two earned runs in both of those games, keeping the Cardinals close. However, St. Louis is 1-2 with Kelly on the mound.
Errors have been costly early in this series. Who will walk out victorious in this one? We will have to watch to find out.
