Ricky Romero had a really bad game

Ricky Romero faced 22 batters and throw 90 pitches and u would think that he pitched 6 strong inning but instead when it is only 3 plus innings where he gave up 6 runs in the first and allowed the first Soxs to reach base and score a run and 7 of the first 8 batters reach base and the Soxs got 4 hits, 2 walks, and a fielder's choice. The reality is that Ricky Romero did not come out of the bullpen ready to pitch against the Red Soxs and gave up a single run until the fourth inning as he gave up two hits and 3 walks and then gave up a walk to David Ortiz and a double to Cody Ross before being pulled with two on and no outs in the fourth and Adrian had a RBI single and a Mike Aviles RBI double to bring in the last two runs on Ricky Ro's day. Ricky Romero in his 90 pitches and 48 strikes as he gave up 9 runs (8 earned) on 7 hits and 6 walks. This performance by Ricky Romero has put the damper on Jose Bautista becoming the leader in the homers in a month with 13 as he hit his 25th homer of the season a solo shot in the fourth inning. Edwin Encarnacion in the sixth inning drove home a Bautista double with his 22Nd homer of the season and Bautista was the only Jay with more than one hit. Brett Lawrie and Colby Rasmus did their thing in the first inning as they both picked up a hit with Lawrie's double was brought in by a RBI single by Rasmus to give the Jays a very short lived 1-0 lead. Jesse Chavez gave up a solo homer to David Ortiz for his 399th homer in his career and closed off the Red Soxs scoring and help them win and take the series capper 10-4 and he also walked 3 times and scored every time. While Adrian Gonzalez had 2 hits scoring a run and also received a RBI on a fielder's choice and had 3 RBI in the game. Jays need a good Canada Day series against the Angels Tom Mehegan
