Actually they did even worse in a way today, :naughty: Jays lost by 12 to the Sox on Saturday, today they lost by 13(!) as the bats of the Sox are unstoppable again in pummeling the Jay 14-1. :victory: Strong effort by Lester going 8 innings, Ortiz just keeps hitting them out, think he hit 5 HRs on the week :bow: and AG went deep too, now has at least one RBI in 9 straight games. :applaud:

Dodgers beat the Rockies in a slugfest, 10-8.

Dodgers lose to the Reds again, 3-2. :(

Sox winning streak came to an end last night. They lost to the Tampa Bay, 4-0.

Dodgers get swept, losing to the Reds again, 7-2. :shakehead:

Sox end their losing streak in winning at the Rays 3-0 on a Youk 3 run homer. Story of the game was Beckett :victory: who pitched a gem only ONE hit and ZERO walks in going all the way for the shutout in dropping his ERA back below 2, also threw only 97 pitches(!). :applaud:

He pitched great when few people were watching. :mrgreen:

They'll just never draw there despite still having still having a solid team despite losing some good players, maybe Montreal needs to get a team back. :grumble:
Sox took the rubber game against the Rays tonight in topping them 4-2. Buchholz gets the victory though only going 5 innings, 'pen came thru though and AG just continues to smoke the ball with another HR tonight. :victory:

Back here in Boston, most people were watching the Bs game. So few realized he had pitched a gem.

Can't blame them can you? All the suspense of a game 7, when the Sox play the only suspense is how many runs they'll win by. :hehe:
Tonight the margin was 6 runs as they pummeled the Brew Crew 10-4. :victory: When they score in double digits have to figure that Lackey pitched and yes, he did. :naughty: Allowed 4 runs in the first 3 innings but settled down and pitched 5 more innings all scoreless, another day at the office for AG, 3-4 with a HR. :applaud:

Dodgers lose their fourth straight, 7-3, to the Astros. :(

Make it five loses in a row, Dodgers lose, 7-0. :(

Dodgers end their five-game losing streak and shut out the Astros, 1-0.

Sox got back to their hitting ways yesterday after scoring only 2 on Saturday by blasting the Brew Crew 12-4. :victory: Solid outing by Wakefield going 8 innings, :applaud: gonna need him to keep doing that for a while as Buchholz gets put on the DL, also Crawford got put on the DL just after he was turning things around.

Clayton Kershaw pitches a 2-hit, 11-strikeout, complete game shutout against the Tigers and the Dodgers win, 4-0. :victory:

Sox are getting boring, :hehe: another 14 runs last night as they crush the Padres 14-5. Adrian continues his torrid streak going 3-5 with 3 more RBIs against his former team, so far the leading candidate for the AL MVP. :mrgreen:

Dodgers look to have found a team they can beat, defeating the Tigers again, 6-1.

After rain delays Sox lose to Padres again, 5-1.
Now they're going to NL parks, so there is the issue of what to do with Ortiz.
