Prev. Gm: |
Tampa Bay Rays (16-12) @ Boston Red Sox (17-13) |
GAME NOTES: There are only two possible ways today plays out: (1) the Red Sox put a hurt on Edwin Jackson who we know is wildly inconsistent and should be the type of pitcher this team can wait out and hit hard or (2) the Red Sox have absolutely forgotten how to hit. Regardless of offensive support, Clay Buchholz looks to back up his brilliant, yet tainted outing in Tampa Bay with another gem. Should Akinori Iwamura be looking for a ball high and tight to start the game after his “Manny-esque” grandstanding off Buchholz last week?
