Youkilis’ walk-off HR negates series sweep

June 23rd, 2008 by Shawn Medeiros

Kevin Youkilis’ homers twice, but the most important one came in the bottom of the 13th inning.
The two-run walk-off homer lifted the Boston Red Sox over the St. Louis Cardinals 5-3.
It was Youkilis’ 13th home run of the season.
Star of the Game: Youk
Two home runs, one for a walk-off gets him the nod here.

    How about that play-at-the-plate from Drew to Tek in 12th!? Drew saving runs with his glove as well. Can he do no wrong in June?

    No wrong in June. Let’s hope he can continue at a good clip through July and August.

    I still like the sound of Becket and Haren in the same rotation. Tonite closes out the first half for these two, so it should be a battle. C’mon Josh. We need a big ending.

    Yeah, let us hope that Drew keeps it together throughout the rest of the season.
