Red Sox: 8 Those Other Sox: 0
Dice-K pitched a gem tonight at Fenway against a slugger-heavy White Sox lineup, holding them to a mere two hits and grabbing win #16 for the season. He had an awesome start against the White Sox in Chicago a few weeks ago, which as to make him a feared pitcher among the palehose. Both starts he went eight innings, giving the pen much needed rest. Timlin, the designated mop-up man, pitched a flawless ninth, preserving the two-hitter. Dice-K K'ed seven in his dominating start.
At the plate, Pedey was relentless, going 4 for 5 with a walk. He stole second twice and scored three runs. White Sox pitching just couldn't get him out tonight. Jason Bay busted the game open in the sixth with a bases-clearing double, giving him a total of 27 RBI in the short time he's been in a Red Sox uni. Kotsay stroked another double, this time picking up a ribbie to go with it. Papi had a three-hit night with an RBI, while Youk had two hits and three RBI, one of which came in a rather painful way, when he was hit by a pitch in the fifth. Jake went hitless, but made a spectacular catch in the first inning, robbing OCab of extra bases.
Tomorrow night, Sox prospect Michael Bowden makes his major league debut. Buehrle goes for the ChiSox.
LET'S GO RED SOX!!!!!
