I don't know if this has been talked about at all, whether it be on the NESN postgame, WEEI or on here, but I thought it was worth bringing up. In the 7th inning with a men on 1st and 3rd, down 5-1, why was Doug Mirabelli still hitting? The guy had already struck out twice on the day against Haren. Is it just because Francona wanted Varitek to have the entire day off? Or maybe V-tek has bad numbers against Haren. I was just wondering if anyone else was wondering the same thing, now that we're about to be only 1.5 up.
