SOX SHOVE BATS DOWN BJs' THROATS
Class? No thank you
Toronto BJs 4
Boston Red Sox 5/10 Inn.
Wrapup & Box Score
W: Kim (4-7)
L: Lopez (1-3)
BS: Acavedo (2)
H: Service, Miller (1, 9)
We really needed this victory. Had we lost, we would have lost our 4th straight game, lost the 4 game series to Toronto and fallen 5 behind New York. Mendoza was doing very well until 2 outs into the 6th inning when he melted. Perhaps his new nickname will be "Ice Cream" cuz he can only last for a little bit. Another stellar performance by the bullpen as they combined to go 4.1 scoreless innings allowing 2 hits and striking out 6. However, we probably should have lost this game. Ramirez should have been called out for interfearance (horribly mispelled) on Nomar's SB in the 9th
The Man of the Game is Nomar Garciaparra. This is his 5th MOTG. He went 2 for 4 with 2 basehits, but he walked once, and scored twice. His stolen base proved to be a key play as it allowed Manny to knock him in as the tying run. Nomar also made some nice defensive plays. Here are the MOTG standings after 33 awarded:
1. Nomar - 5
2. Millar, Varitek - 3
4. Roy Halladay, PEDRO, Nixon, Mueller - 2
8. Walker, Kapler, Manny, Burkett, Sanchez, Rupe, Lyon, M. Mussina (NYY), A. Pettitte (NYY) J. Crede (CWS), E. Loiza (CWS), JD Drew (StL), B. Myers (PHI), J. Pierre (FLA) - 1
Anyway, the Y*nkees won, Anaheim and Oakland lost so we improve our Wild Card position slightly.
USA 5-0 Cuba.
Landon Donovan with 4 goals. First time a USA player has done that since the Revolution's Joe-Max Moore did it vs. El Salvador back in like 91. Now we take on Costa Rica methinks in the Semis.
Musings From RSN has a new address. So update your bookmarks cuz MFRSN is the best baseball blog out there.
Now, back to today's game. Very good defense by the right fielders thus far. Trot has 5 putouts thru 3 including a sensational catch slamming into the bullpen walls. Kiltey, for his part, robbed Trot of a HR earlier. Most of the fans in the croud (specifically the bleachers) seem to be wearing either white or red Coca-Cola t-shirts. Must be some sort of promotion. I hope The Sherrif over at ObeyPedro.com got a shirt. He probably can't wear it in the .406 Club. Too bad.
