No Words

Bases loaded for Javy Lopez with 2 outs. And he hit it right to Cano. Another wasted bases loaded opportunity...sounds familiar.

Manny came out in the 5th; cramp in the right hamstring. Not good for us, since he was playing the best out of all the Sox in the series. In direct contrast to Coco Crisp, who went 1-for-19.

Through 7 innings, they had left 10 men on.

So Foulke finally gets to prove he's ready, and he throws a wild pitch that let a run score. So much for Wells getting the win. He had pitched very well all day, and within 5 minutes of sitting down, he's in position to get a loss. Foulke did get 2 strikeouts though, and if Varitek had been behind the plate that wild pitch might not have gotten away. He looked good today, though.

Wily Mo hit a solo HR in the 8th...if only someone could have gotten on.

Wow. They got swept. I don't even know what to say. I don't think anyone expected this, and...I'm just speechless.
