Francona

Francona picked up his 700th career win with the Sox in Philly. The Phillies is also Francona's former team he managed, so that makes it more sweet.

Lester & Laser Show

The Sox won the final game vs the Phillies 5-2. Lester pitched well & picked up his 10th win. Pedroia hit a solo hr & Tek hit 2 hr's.

Red Sox need a win today

The Sox play at 1:05 against the Phillies. They need a big win today to avoid the sweep. Let's go Sox, put on a laser show and get alot of runs for Lester.

Beckett vs Lee

The Sox take on the Phillies in Philly tonight. Beckett is on the mound vs Cliff Lee. The Sox need to step up their play, Phillies are a good team. I also HATE not having Papi in the lineup due to no DH in the N.L. Also it is good that he can be a pinch hitter, but Papi hasn't produced much off of the bench. GO SOX

Volunteering

Today I volunteered at Fenway through the Red Sox Foundation. I sorted out tons of baseball equipment & help coaches from Boston pick out all types of equipment for their youth  baseball & softball teams. It was such a GREAT feeling to be able to help out such a great organization & youth of Boston through the Red Sox.

Wakefield on the mound

The Sox hand the ball to Tim Wakefield as the Sox look to stop their 3 game skid. Also Gonzalez is at 1st again which leaves Papi as a pinch hitter.
Let's Go Sox

Sox vs Pirates

The Sox turn to Lester to pitch well & give the Sox a chance to dominate the Pirates.Don't let them score 1st and often. I would say the Pirates don't worry me, but the Sox lost 2 out of 3 to the last place Padres. I also want the Sox to get a bigger lead & control over 1st in the A.L. East.
