As God pissed on the Fenway Faithful, Sox pitcher John Lackey took the mound raring to go and promptly served up a long ball to give the Padres an early 1-0 lead. A few rain delays later and Lackey would hand the Padres four more runs and the win. As usual Lackey was quick to take responsibility, oh wait no he didn't. In what has become a constant refrain Lackey took none of the blame, explaining in a postgame presser that he thought he pitched well, just a couple of lucky hits that dropped. Lackey has become the new Dice-K, sparkling in one outing and terrible in another. Also like Dice-K he is stubborn and refuses to acknowledge when he's awful, the closest Lackey has come was in an unusual outburst in the Sox lockerroom where the hurler whined "Everything in my life sucks right now" and promptly stormed off. Yeah, Lackey's not great, but it's not his fault some dick saw this turd and offered it $82.5 million guaranteed.
