A "Good" Losing Streak--Peter

Well, now, THAT"s the kind of losing streak I like--if you have to have one at all. One game and then back with a W. And, Jenn, as we both agree, last night's should have been a win as well, but at least Lopez made up for it tonight. At first I was a bit nervous as we quickly found ourselves staring up out of a five zip hole. Carmona's not a bad pitcher when he's on as he's proven in the past. Fortunately, even though Youk's out with a back bruise from last night, the team eventually picked up the slack.

I was happy to see that one concern of mine seems to have been resolved. The Sox' answer to a laser appeared to be his old self, notching a pair of K's. Still a bit concerned over Lester's work so far. Tonight's showing didn't exactly instill any confidence. I hope he's OK and isn't sick again. Papi still has a way to go. This is the longest homerless streak of his career since 2001, and while he is getting more hits over the past few games, he still doesn't seem to have that power stroke in a groove yet. Hope it returns soon.

Gotta' run--Jane's home & we're going to make supper. Give Peanut a pat for me.
