9/28: Bowden subs in for Beckett



GAME NOTES: Josh Beckett has been scratched with mild back spasms with Michael Bowden taking his place. We looked so good going into October: a great bullpen, a good 1-4 rotation and a clicking offense. Now? Our top two pitchers are hobbled and our offense looks feast or famine. Good times.

The Sox look for the sweep.

8/19: Buchholz takes on third straight ace.

Roy Halladay, current ace, takes on potential future ace, Clay Buchholz. Buchholz has been drawing aces for the past three starts now. Before this, he faced off with CC Sabathia and Justin Verlander, losing both games, but pitching decent enough.

8/18: Beckett vs. Romero



Two pitchers with sub 4.00 ERA's go at it in Toronto. One needs to win for their team more than the other...

7/19: Duel in the Dome



Today's game features one of the best pitching matchups of the season with Roy Halladay facing off against a rolling Jon Lester as the Sox aim to take the first series of the second half in Toronto. Could this be the last time the Sox face Halladay in a Blue Jays uniform?

7/17: Out with the old, in with the new



The second half starts with a bang and without Julio Lugo to kick around. Clay Buchholz gets the nod tonight in a cameo appearance with the big club. With Mike Lowell back, and Lowrie on the way tomorrow, the Red Sox will get a good look at what their potential defficiencies are heading into the deadline.

In honor of the departed:
