    That’s OK, the game is the issue and it was great. Imagine Becket giving up 4 HR and he wins hands down. According to Remy, they hit 3 curves and a change. This win would not have happened last week.
    Braun and Pedroia clearly showed why they are ROY’s. Papi is BACK. Prediction: Watch MDC, Hansen and Aardsma be in stride by the end of this home stand, full of home cookin’ and rested for the road,
    At that time we can return to finding ways to get Buster Posey away from the Rays in the draft. There must be a way.
    I suspect he will be such a difference maker that he could play an important role in who will dominate the division in a few years, the Rays or the Sox. Isn’t that a strange thought??!

    Beckett struggles a bit but the bats take care of business. Well done Sox, esp. the Ortiz/Pedroia twosome.
    Mets crush Yankees and they still stay on the bottom. Life in the MLB world is in order.
