Such is life for a struggling Pitcher on a struggling bal club. To the orioles credit they do not go in much for Finger pointing. Just about everyone tried to take responsibility for Friday nights 4-3 loss to the Boston red sox at Fenway Park. Ballard did no to have to. He pitched Well enough to win and still lost for the eighth time in nine decisions. If the defense makes one big play and a couple ofal Roundup routine others he probably pitches a shutout. But this club is Way beyond the a a if stage. Joe Orsulak was thrown out on the bases twice in Pivotal situations. Craig Worthington and Randy Mil Igan both suffered defensive lapses that led to important runs. The orioles let a shaky Mike Boddicker slip through their fingers. They lost for the third time in four games on the Road trip and for the eighth time in the last 10 games Overall. Boddicker a Triumph was his eighth straight and lifted his record to 9-3.
