Betancourt has thrown 20 pitches to this point
Manny- 9 pitches
Lowell- 10 pitches
Drew- 1 pitch
Ugh. 1-2-3 for Betancourt, I was hoping for at least 1 runner to reach. The bottom of the 9th will be Crisp, Lugo, Pedroia
Haha Dusty Baker is the new Reds manager
EDIT: Solid inning by Timlin. Lowell, Drew, Varitek. IMO if Tek reaches, it would be nice too see Ellsbury called upon to pinch run
No worries. Sorry if I flew off the handle about Lugo, just the adrenaline that is Boston in the playoffs. Baseball games are my only safe haven from what is the outside world
Crisp, Lugo, Pedroia... see if you can score some more runs. Okajima for the 7th, Papelbon is pitching on 8 days rest plus day off tomorrow (send him out for the 8th)
Rafael Perez is rattled, Im loving it! Sox batters have faced 2 pitchers who handled the yankees prior (Carmona, Perez) and have left beating them to a pulp
Now even Drew gets a hit
