Pap owes Pedey dinner.....
atta boy Pedey... that was a big "fuckin eh" rounding first after his 3rd jack of the night. 15 total bases. Let me repeat that... 15 TOTAL BASES. That has only happened 7 other times in the 2000's... Pooholes in '04 and our very own Mike Cameron did it on a 4 homer night while with Seattle in '02. Falling short on the others.
Decent start by Dice-k. That Scutaro error probably cost him an inning on his line which ends up looking like this : 5ip 5h 2r 2er 4bb 6ks levels his ERA at 4.50
Pap..... Serenity now. In his defence when he came out for the home half of the 10th he was on a mission and made quick work of the Rockies.
Its also Pap's first back to back blown saves since blowing two to the Tigers and Twins consecutively May 7th and 9th... both on the road....
Beltre... Man what else can I say. This guy has been huge. Another 3 hits. Works the average to 3.42 and was a triple shy of the cycle (so was Pedey).
Dice-K returned to the scene of his 2 run RBI in the '07 series and sits nicely with a solid .500 average....
Also of note J.D. Drew did pinch hit for Andrew Dice-K which pretty much rules out any trip to the DL for J.D. Salinger if you look at placing him retroactively etc...

Lots of positives. And at least we wont see Carpenter in THE GATE WAY TO THE WEST!!!

Nice to see Nava rewarded by being put in the #2 spot.
on another note Mike Lowell was placed on the DL this afternoon... anyone care?
too bad for Lowell. i would like to see him play everday but that is obviously not going to happen with the sox. Hopefully Mike will be able to contribute with another team in the near future.

Beckett etc.
Looks like Beck is slated to possibly return no earlier than July 11th or July 16th.
Still seems like a no-go for Drew tonight so it will be a Pawtucket outfield once again.
Line up will be up soon for tonights game against the Rockies.

Blown
Jonathon Paplebon entered the game and quickly poured some gas and lit a match....poof. loss.
Tough loss after battling back against Jimenez and inflating his ERA all the way up to 1.60. Good effort by Lackey who got behind early but fought hard and retired a stretch of 10 Rockies in the meat of the game while the Sox were scoring runs. His final line ends up looking thusly: 6.2 ip, 5 earned with 7ks in the no-decision. Nava drove in another 3 and Darnell went deep in his home state.
Tough one to lose with the Rays losing earlier and the Yanks tying things up at 4's with the D'backs as we speak. missed opportunity to gain ground on the Rays and Keep pace with NY. Thats why we play 162. Back at it again tomorrow night as the Sox look to avoid the sweep. The Sox will have to contend with another pitcher on a hot streak tomorrow night when the face Jason Hammel who has an ERA of 0.00 over his past 3 starts going 3-0.

...And it wasn't even Ubaldo out there....
Jon lester (8-3) had another strong outing. 6ip. 6ks 1 earned and only 1 walk. Bringing his ERA down to 3.03 for the season. But was saddled with the loss mainly because there was a rookie walking out from the other dugout that seemed to have the number of the Sox hitters tonight. Chacin did get into trouble in the 3rd and 7th loading the bases each time but escaping unscathed. The Sox were able to muster one run in the 9th but it was too little too late after Okajima gave up a run in the 8th. We also saw the end of Dustin’s 10 game hit streak but he did manage two free passes. Adrian Beltre keeps swinging a hot bat with two more hits and scoring the only run tonight for visitors.
Word on the injury front is that J.D. is the closest to returning to the line up. Possibly Thursday, after tweaking his hamstring over the weekend.
Josh Beckett threw from the mound at Fenway yesterday. Throwing 42 pitches (all fastballs) and another 55 today at coors field, all of his repertoire included. Beckett is scheduled to throw a simulated start on Saturday in San Francisco, after which he will fall into a routine of pitching every 5 days.
Jacoby Ellsbury has traveled to Arizona tend to his injured ribs. Still looking like a post all-star return for Jake.
Hermida is still feeling some discomfort in his ribs but is taking part in activities(no hitting yet). No time table for his return.
Great pitching match up to look forward to tomorrow as the MLB leader in wins goes for the Rockies.
John Lackey (8-3 4.53)
Vs.
Ubaldo Jimenez (13-1, 1.15) wow……
