Not much to say about this one. Normally, when you score nine runs and get 14 hits, you win. Unfortunately, every single Sox pitcher except Aardsma was worse than terrible. That includes Jenn's favorite, Timlin. Middle of the game when it was beginning to look like this one wasn't going to be the Sox' night, we sent 11 men to the plat and got SIX RUNS in the inning--Sox 9, Yanks 7. Unfortunately, we gave it all back in an inning, four runs, in fact, and it continued downhill from there. Papi continued his slow recovery from the slump with a single; Manny( 3-4),JD(3-5) and Casey(2-3) all had multi-hit results, as did Dusty (2-5),but it was not to be tonight. What makes it even more frustrating was that we drove Wang from the mound after only four innings and change (he left in the 5th with no-one out), getting 9 hits, three walks and 8 earned runs from him. Too bad-- a wasted effort. Well, tomorrow's another day. Hopefully, it will have another result.
