Funny how the Sox lineup is numbered but the Royals’ isn’t. Hope Lowell and Ortiz are okay – they’re both dealing with injuries.

Not starting well.

Beckett throws a fastball right down the middle of the plate to KC’s 2nd best hitter. Run scoring double, after Drew misplay.

Becks is also missing with his breaking ball location.

damn

I was hoping Beckett could make that 1 run hold up, after all its more then what we gave him against NY.
Too all Sox players, THEY ARE KANSAS CITY, LET’S JUST WAKE UP AND BEAT THESE GUYS 6-2 LIKE WE ARE SUPPOSED TO.

I don’t see how they continue to win games. Now with Joba going down and Wang still missing, their starting pitching is as thin as a supermodel.

No. The ump has not given him any of those inside corner calls.

No

But he has a good 2-seamer tonight. He hasn’t gotten the call. But it’s important to throw to both sides of the plate.

I'm betting on bad news for the MFY

From MLB.com:

Chamberlain underwent an MRI on his stiff right shoulder Tuesday in New York, but the Yankees did not immediately announce what that exam showed. The team revealed only that Chamberlain will travel to Birmingham, Ala., on Wednesday to receive a second opinion from renowned orthopedic surgeon Dr. James Andrews

For what it's worth!

Other than the chronic offensive weakness at catcher, which WILL have to be dealt with by the eventual removal of Varitek IMO, I thought the line up for Tuesday night’s game was about the best I have seen or could imagine for the sox. Exciting and strong to say the least.

Even if they leave Varitek in for now, this line-up can repeat as champions. I stress that Crisp and Lugo MUST be kept off the field as they just don’t have even the potential to allow momentum to gather and extend. They are truly momentum suckers of the first degree. Ellsburg and Lowrie and Bay can infuse and foster momentum as they did on Tuesday. If you keep Crisp and Lugo out of the lineup, that just leaves Varitek as the sole primary momentum sucker, and although not ideal, one momentum sucker can be likely tolerated for a while!!
