SAN FRANCISCO — It’s a long way from that horrible Sept. 28, 2011 evening at Camden Yards when the Red Sox completed a historic collapse in that month with a 4-3 walkoff loss to the Orioles.
Marco Scutaro, trying to carry on while playing with a battered and painful shoulder and neck, played shortstop for the Sox that night. He went 2 for 4 to finish the season hitting .299.

It seems that Nick cannot write an article or column about baseball that does not reference every possible connection to the Red Sox, no matter how tangential. That aside, the Giants came back from a 2-0 deficit agains the Reds, and won the last three games in Cincinnati.
Why can't we get guys like that?
"the lowest point in his baseball career"? He just wrapped up his best season statistically in his career. It might have been seen as the lowest point for the Red Sox (until the disaster known as Bobby V struck, that is), but not for Scutaro.
