Final Score
Red Sox 5
Blue Jays 8

We Got the Wrong Guy: It’s Vernon, not David Wells that can still play!

Toronto’s version of the surname blasted 3-more home runs last night, bringing his yearly total against the Red Sox to eight. Amazing! 8-of his 15-HR’s have come against the Sox. Haven’t seen one guy do this much damage to Boston since Albert DiSalvo roamed the streets.

We’re Not in Kansas Anymore, Toto: More proof the National League is a magic Land of Oz for pitchers:

Josh Beckett has now allowed 14-HR’s in 68 2/3 innings. That matches his total from last year, which took 178 2/3 innings to accomplish. Surprisingly, none of roundtrippers have come at Fenway. How odd is that?

NoteWorthy Answer: Since it’s not kosher for a blogger to post comments on the home site, I’ll give my answer to Lynn Worthy’s David Pauley post right here;

For as much fun as we like to poke at the Yankees, the bottom of their rotation (Chacon, Small and Wright) would be an improvement over what the Sox are trotting out there right now. Something has to change, but I pray those Kyle Lohse rumors I’m reading aren’t true.
