The Red Sox had the bases loaded with one out after Thaiss committed the two infractions and took advantage of the opportunity.</p><p>Yu Chang ripped a two-run single through the hole on the left side of the infield to give the Red Sox the lead. The Angels went down in order in their final at-bats, dropping their second straight game in Boston.</p><p>Thaiss took full responsibility for the loss.</p><p>“It’s awful,” Thaiss said. “It’s the reason we lost. It stings. I’m sick to my stomach over it. We’ll rebound tomorrow.”</p><p>While it’s easy for Thaiss to blame himself for the loss, so much has to happen to get to a final score of 9-7. His mistakes will be amplified because of when they occurred in the game, but Thaiss shouldn’t carry the weight of the defeat on his shoulders.</p><p>Though the Angels had seven runs on nine hits, Thaiss didn’t contribute to the offensive output. He was hitless in four plate appearances but reached base twice via hit-by-pitch.</p><p>Getting called for catcher’s interference at any time is a tough pill for a catcher to swallow. When it happens <b><i>twice</i></b> in a crucial part of a game, it’s hard not to feel like the entire stadium has eyes on you. Hopefully better days are ahead on the diamond for Matt Thaiss.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
