That's the only story I read about that game, and it was written by a robot? Cripes.
I'd argue with Carr that the robot didn't bury the lede (the Angels sweeping), but missed the nuance in the box score: for those of us freezing our nuts off at Fenway, innings 1â€"7 appeared to be a Red Sox win. And then Papelbot had his first post-season blown save (with a postscript noting the sweep).

But when will the other robots be ready?
Sportswriting was not at the top of my list.
What next? A robot that can replicate pithy news commentary? That'll be the day.
How about sports strategists? (I think the Washington Redskins should try coaching this way.)
