Stat of the Day: Ellsbury is 12 of 35 (.343) in eight games since returning. But he has gone 67 at-bats (back to last Sept. 27) since hitting a home run. Bet that ends soon, although he is not in the lineup today.

 

Notes: Cook has a 1.67 ERA in his last four starts, the Sox going 3-1 in those games He has not faced the Jays since 2007. ... Villaneuva is making his first start against the Red Sox since 2008 when he was with the Brewers. He allowed five earned runs in four innings that day in a game the Sox won, 11-7. A reliever most of the season, Villaneuva is 3-0 as a starter with a 1.59 ERA in three starts since joining the rotation. He has allowed 14 hits over 17 innings and struck out 21 with six walks. ... Crawford has hit second in all six games so far, counting tonight. He hit second 10 times all last season. Crawford is 7 of 18 since coming back. ... Encarnacion is 18 of 45 (.400) with six extra-base hits and 16 RBIs in his lat 14 games against the Red Sox. ... Saltalamacchia is 1 of 16 with 9 K's since the break, 4 of 41 (.098) with 22 K's this month and 9 of 68 (.133) with 31 K's in his last 19 games. ... The Jason Varitek ceremonies start at 6:30.

 

Song of the Day: "Twisting The Night Away" by Sam Cooke.

 

I havent heard anything about Ellsbury but apparently Nava, who can barely hit right now is our lead off man. Whatever, make due & win this s***.

How many months did Ells have off? I want that beast in the lineup every night.

 

Would you rather he play every day and risk injury? Or take an off day and have him the rest of the year? ( and I only ask this, because there are trained professionals that obviously think he should have a "rest" day, and I don't pretend to know their job better than they do)

Hey Semperfi - I know we have different opinions on a lot of s***, and we got in a bit of an argument over Crawford yesterday - Just wanted to say I probably made some personal attacks yesterday that were unwarranted, so I'm sorry for that - more out of frustration about the Sox playing like crap than anything else. Anyway, just wanted to apologize.

How long is the ceremony lasting? MLB.TV is not showing it. When does the game start?

 

I don't have it yet on MLB Extra Innings? Usually starts coverage at 7pm

Now I have the game. Hated missing most of the Tek ceremony! Dammit!

 

They aired it on boston.mlb.com, caught the last part of it. Didn't seem like nothing to special.
