Four pitches taken by the Sox

Timlin blows ANOTHER save as Millar hits a 2 RBI single in the ninth to make it 5-4 O's.

Please just let this season end already...

With Manny's return, we can expect more gossip for the next season. It's starting to become more of a soap-opera really. Not a Manny fan or anything, but Kudos to you for not letting all the negative remarks affect your performance on the field. As for papelbon, good to know that he's back on track. Definitely one player worth keeping.
