GAME NOTES: Time to regain control of the series. A win and a stellar performance from Matsuzaka would change the entire complexity of the series. It’s up to Matsuzaka- if he controls the strike zone, throws a variety of pitches over and keeps the ball down success will result. If not, we could be digging ourselves a deep hole with Coin Flip Wakefield tomorrow. Quieting the rowdy Jake crowd from the first inning is key. Offense: keep rolling……and WIN.
