[markj]

Attaboy, Hanley. Sox up 4-3. Hanley thought that was gone.

Johnson gives up another dinger. Luckily a solo shot. Sox still up 6-4.

[Rob from Mass]

OK time to go to the pen.Johnson wasn't  good but at least he didn't  give up 8-9.Ship back to 
AAA  and recall Taylor

[markj]

Mookie goes deep. Sox up 7-4.

[Rob from Mass]

OMG someone hit a dinger!!!

[markj]

Oops, Xman blew that one.

[Schloicka]

Hembree bailed him out.

[markj]

Nice play by Hembree. Very nice.

[markj]

Barnes gets them out of the inning. Have to admit, the BP has been doing well the last few games.

[markj]

C'mon, Barnes. Finish this up.

[markj]

Meatball Matt just made this a one-run game. I hope someone is ready in the pen.

[markj]

Phew! Game over. Sox win 8-7. BP almost blew this one.

[markj]

When all is said and done, 4 wins in a row is good. Poor Jays now at 2-11. Pretty shocking for a team that was in contention last year.

[ipot]

Phew! Game over. Sox win 8-7. BP almost blew this one.

I refer to my '8 runs to win' post earlier in this thread ;)  It feels good to be right once in 162 games 8)

We're gonna have to hammer out like 8 runs to win this.....

You called it my friend.  We needed eight runs, so you said and that's what it took.  Of course, if the meatball wasn't pitching the ninth inning it might have ended sooner, but it is great to go on the road and win the opening game of a road trip.  We need to keep this up.  We made it a close game but we have won the close ones so far, haven't we IPOT.
