Atlanta Left in His Wake--Peter

Tim Wakefield hit another career milestone today. In all of Bosox history, the record for most starts, 382, by a Sox pitcher had been held by two guys, one in the Hall and with a trophy named for him, and the other possibly a future member of the Hall (depending on how voters react to 'roids). The pitchers: Denton T. Young, better known to you as Cy, and the Rocket, Roger Clemens. Well, Jenn, today Wake joined the ranks with his 382d start as a Sox player. Even better, he got the win in a well pitched one zip game against the former Boston, via Milwaukee, now Atlanta Braves. I know I did that historical hegira yesterday, but I don't often get the chance, so cut me some slack. The last time the Sox won 1-0 in a game Wake started was his second start in a Hose uniform, back in 1994. Great day. Papi continued his climb back, going 1-2 and Youk tripled and scored the game's only run. Laser shut the door, although the catch on a long fly off one of his flamers was a hold your breath special. Didn't make the track, but both Sox fielders were locked on and it looked like someone was going to end up carried off if they weren't called off first. Fortunately, the collision was averted and the game ended.
