Missed the first 1-1/2 innings due to the power outtage from the wacky thunderstorms we get here in Florida. So I missed Lester's meltdown. When your starter is on the ropes in the first inning and can't get off them then you konw you have some trouble. Tavarez did a nice job getting 9 outs with one strike out and one walk. Manny D. and Okie were flawless and Paps walk away with the win . Not many strike outs to night as Lester had the most with 5 and a game total of only 7 so a big round of applause to the defense.
The mighty mite, Pedroia was stellar as usual. Drew is hitting like he was in a National League Stadium 2 hits and 2 walks. That is VERY nice to see.
The night really belongs to big PAPI. All the runs were his and all the rbi's were his. He has really stepped up his game in the last week and I for one am very please. Two big homers and the stay at 5 games over the MFY.
OK beantown....you ready for them??? Let's get our game on and sweep 'em!!
GO SOX!!!

jmp, figured I'd return the comment favor: thanks for stopping by my place. Meeting another Sox fan is always a good thing, especially another Dad.
Seeing Papi work some of his magic was very nice to see. And I've got a feeling JD will be BIG in October.
Take care,
Ted
