Game 100: Red Sox (55-44) @ Angels (52-49)

By Ben Buchanan


Wow, those records are a lot closer than I thought.


Things are bad, bad, bad right now in Beantown. The Sox are staring at a five game wild card deficit with the trade deadline coming up, and really can't afford to keep dropping games. If they want to avoid doing that tonight, they'll have to see Clay Buchholz get back on track tonight in his second start off the DL.

W-L G GS CG SHO SV BS IP H R ER HR BB K ERA WHIP
2010 - Clay Buchholz 10-5 16 16 1 1 0 0 96.0 83 36 30 5 41 66 2.81 1.29

They'll also have to hit unlucky ace and the newest Angel, Dan Haren.

2010 - Dan Haren 7-8 23 21 1 0 0 0 141.0 161 79 72 23 29 141 4.60 1.35


They'll have some help in doing that tonight, though. This lineup looks a lot better with Victor Martinez in it:
