PRIOR GAME VS. TOR: Red Sox 0, Blue Jays 5 on 9/25/06 DECISION: W: Shaun Marcum | L: Tim Wakefield STAR OF THE GAME: Molina: 2 AB, 1 R, 1 H, 2 BB, 2 RBI RED SOX’S PREVIOUS GAME: Red Sox 7, Angels 2 on 4/16/07 |
GAME NOTES: The Sox head to Toronto winners of 5 of 6 and the pieces coming together quite nicely. Daisuke makes his third start of the year opposing Gustavo Chacin, a pitcher we’ve seen quite a few times in the past. That Dome usually gives us problems, so luckily Troy Glaus and Reed Johnson are both on the DL to make it easier for Dice-K. B.J. Ryan is also ailing a shoulder that will keep him out up to 6 weeks. The Sox need to take advantage this week of not only the banged up Jays but the decimated Yankees pitching staff and keep going with these winning ways. It’s fun to watch.
