Like Dad said, Bartolo Colon made good. He may have only pitched five innings and threw only 74 pitches, but he did enough to get the win and prove that the Sox purchase in the off season was a smart move.
I won't go into details because Dad gave you everything you need to know. All I'll say is Colon looked good and closed the door on the Royals when he needed to.
Thankfully the bullpen kept up the good work and yes, even Timlin didn't screw it up, though he tried by giving Gathright a free pass. Then DeJesus lined to right and Gathright scored the final Royals run. Luckily the Sox were ahead by 4, so one run wasn't enough to be a threat.
Today Dice-K's back on the mound and the Sox look to sweep the Royals in the final game of the series and make their trip back to the Fens 7-0.
