J.D. Drew completely misplayed a ball hit to right field in the eighth inning, allowing the Blue Jays to score the winning runs in a totally pathetic 4-3 win over the Red Sox last night.
The game-winning double should have been an out, preserving a 2-2 tie. But Drew ran straight across right field, instead of taking a diagonal path back towards the fence, and the ball sailed over his outstretched glove. Eric Gagne takes most of the blame for the loss, but Drew definintely helped him choke the game away.
The knock against Drew all year has been his nonexistent offense. Defense was his lone bright spot. Well, no longer.
Now that he has cost the Red Sox with his play on both offense and defense, more than ever, it's time to donate to the J.D. Drew Relief Fund. Please, don't wait any longer. The pennant race is in full effect, and without your immediate help, Drew could send the Red Sox to an early playoff exit -- or keep them out of the postseason entirely.
