The Red Sox are near the bottom of the league in runs scored. Coming into the season, the offense had high expectations, but things have not clicked yet. After an 8-6 loss to the San Diego Padres on Sunday, Anthony was very critical of how the team has played so far.
“We simply just need to be better…," Anthony told reporters after the game. "It's just a tough stretch, and we need to find a way to just bring more energy and just be better. This is unacceptable.
It's unacceptable to the fans. It's unacceptable to the standard that we set for ourselves. ” Tough stretch might be an understatement, but Anthony seems to know that the Red Sox can turn the corner at any given moment.
