GAME NOTES: If Beckett wants to stay in the Cy Young decision, a stellar game has to happen here. He’s tied for the major league lead in wins but ranks eighth in ERA, behind other contenders Kelvim Escobar, John Lackey and the prohibitive favorite, C.C. Sabathia (17-7, 3.15). You can do it, Josh! Today at 9 PM is the deadline to vote for the Red Sox Nation President — I endorse Lorraine Murawski, who is a devoted Sox fan and hails from my hometown!
