Julio Lugo, trying to win the starting shortstop job, went 2-for-3 from the leadoff spot. Captain Jason Varitek drove in four runs, including a two-run double. All of Varitek's production came from the left side, where he hit just .201 last season. J.D. Drew scored twice and had two hits. Jason Bay scored three runs and had two hits. Brad Wilkerson, in competition for a spot on the bench, ripped a two-run homer and added a ground-rule double. ...***
Clay Buchholz was sharp in his two innings, giving up a hit and striking out one.

Benjamin:
Pawtucket manager Ron Johnson got booed by the crowd for holding up Jacoby Ellsbury at third base on a long drive to centerfield that probably could have been an inside-the-park home run.***

ReplyDeleteReds on the board.
ReplyDelete12-1 Boston.
26 runs in nine offensive innings so far today.
ReplyDeleteSox finally don't score in an inning. I thought this might be the game.
ReplyDeleteGDGD says our record is (-5--1). I assume it's choking on the college exhibition games.
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised they had Castig and Risch do both games of a day-nighter in February.
ReplyDeleteYeah, isn't spring training all about bringing up fresh talent and giving them a shot at the big game?
ReplyDeleteSo if we can split the season between college teams and interleague games, we should be set.
ReplyDeletewhay aren't all the sox spring training games on the tele?
ReplyDeleteYay, BC lost by less than Northeastern! That's all I ask. :)
