SCHILLING IMPRESSES AS SOX WIN 4-1
Boston Red Sox 4
Baltimore Orioles 1
W: Curt Schilling (1-0)
L: Eric DuBose (0-1)
S: Keith Foulke (1)
H: Mike "Not so Timid" Timlin (1), Allen "Lefty" Embree (1)


The offense still isn't up there though. We should be scoring more runs than this. Schilling pitched very well even though he gave up a good number of hits in 6 innings. The 3 perfect innings of relief from Embree, Timlin and Foulke were also nice. Damon blew going 0/4 leaving 5 men on. Why was Burks batting third? How come Burks played instead of Kapler who did well in sunday night's game? Damon seems to be prone to running into people in the outfield. Hopefully, Millar is fine.

The Man of the Game is Curt Schilling. He threw 6 innings scattering 6 hits, allowing one earned run, only walking one and striking out 7. He also initiated a nifty 1-6-3 double play.

Burks got a stolen base. What the fuck?

Francona doesn't seem shy to use the bench. He's used 16 different players (12 position players, 4 pitchers) for each of the first two games.

Arsenal lost to Chelsea today in the Champion's League. The dream of a triple championship died Saturday with an FA Cup loss to Man U and the most we can hope for now is to win the English League title. Not a bad season but we were close to greatness.
