Another really bizarre Red Sox offense fact, unlike the norm in baseball, the more times through the lineup vs a starter the worse they hit.
If they don't score early, go to bed.

The starting lineup was a sight to be seen:
1 Trot Nixon CF
2 Mike Lansing SS
3 Israel Alcantara LF
4 Manny Ramirez DH
5 Dante Bichette RF
6 Brian Daubach 1B
7 Shea Hillenbrand 3B
8 Lou Merloni 2B
9 Joe Oliver C
David Cone P

This was a near perfect game for Mike Mussina. Carl Everett pinch hit and got the only hit with only 1 out to go.
Manny was the DH. Mike Lansing started at SS.
