Great outing by E-Rod. Sox pitching with 3 shutouts in 4 games.

Impressive  showing by Erod against a power lineup. Carson Smith will be a welcome asset to the pen in the POs.

This is how we keep the line moving---win our game and let the rest take care of the rest.  Eduardo was terrific today and it is nice to know that we have three starters we can depend on for the last eight games of the regular season. Tomorrow is one time we cannot be satisfied with just winning a series because we need  the hat trick for the simple reason we cannot depend on Toronto winning their series with the Yankees even though we all want to see that happen.  Hope Pedroia can play tomorrow and then we can put Holt in the outfield and get Young out of that lineup once and for all.  Good game today----only seven hits again but like last night we made them count---and now we're starting to hit three run homers.  Three run jobs can go a long way as we saw this afternoon.

Really great job by E-Rod.  Ya think we wants a spot in the rotation in the playoffs? 8)

IPOT--I'm already starting to sweat tomorrow's game because we have Doug Fister on the mound and he has returned to the lousy pitcher he was for the first month or so we got him.  What a treat it would be to see him finally brace himself and twirl an outstanding game like the ones he threw against Cleveland or that gem against the Yankees, but Farrell must give him a very short rope because we haven't hit all that well in these two game even though the hits have been timely.  We need a big game from Doug and a complete offensive outburst by our team.  We're getting closer to where we want to be and we must keep that line moving towards that point.
