Play from 0:00[0:00]" Last night's 43 loss to the Royals they're playing a team that suddenly hot right now Kansas City Royals won seven of their last eight games. Play buckled as a guy who's going to have to start winning some games for the Red Sox if they are to make it to the post season. As loss last night dropped him to two and seven on the season he hasn't won a game since early may he gave up -- Kansas City runs last night. The defeat did not cost the Red Sox any ground. Both Tampa bay in the Yankees lost so the Red Sox remain four behind everybody in the loss column to ahead of the Yankees a loss column in the east. But it did cost them in the wild card chase the White Sox were -- for the Red Sox and White Sox are now even with 49 defeats apiece. And they right now or the two teams battling for the wild card spot. With 49 games to go to the Red Sox need play -- the start to win some games for the and they need David Ortiz to start hitting again. No word on whether Ortiz suffered any further damage to his left wrist he said he felt something click in the wrist while swinging at a pitch in the ninth inning. Occasionally missed almost two months of the season with a torn tendon sheet in the wrist in late mate. And after last night's game did not the problem would affect important night's game doctors had told me might feel movement in the wrist from time to time. But those two things are intertwined Clay Buchholz has got the start to win some games for the Red Sox to make the post season. And big -- has got to start that for the road -- to make the postseason. Islanders are known until -- those WBZ sports."
