What exactly about Camden Yards (AKA Fenway South) makes Okajima think he’s in the Blair Witch Project? On May 14th he entered the eighth inning with a 3-2 lead and served up a grand slam to eternal clubhouse-cancer Jay Payton. While that was painful, we all hoped it would be an isolated incident. No reliever is perfect ( Rivera 2001 World Series ).

However, this is sadly starting to look like a trend. Last night, Okijima entered a 3-2 game in the eighth inning. He gives up three quick singles, and Millar ties the game with a sac fly. Thanks to a heads-up play by Youks, the go-ahead run gets caught in a run-down and tagged out, so Okajima at least has a chance to get the game to the 9th with a tie intact. Instead, he walks the bases loaded, and goes 3-1 to Adam Jones before serving up a belt-high fastball that Jones hits to left for a bases-clearing double. Final score? 6-3 Orioles.

Now for the worst part. The Okajima debacle wasn’t the most painful news of the day for Sox fans. Papi is heading to the DL for a minimum of a month, and possibly the rest of the season. Now I feel like I’m in a horror movie.
