GAME #63, PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES AT BOSTON RED SOX

[Schloicka]

Panda with the leadoff single. Leon with the bunt to move the pinch runner Marrero to 2nd. A intentional walk to Betts and a game winning single by Pedroia. Can't draw it up much better than that.

Me too, bo!  Barnes did a great job.  The whole pen came through.  Barnes has more wins than Porcello now.

SOX escape with a win.  Never should have been that close.

  Entertaining, as DAD would say, "SON, that's one less we will have to win in September" !!!  thumb_u

Running into outs, the Sox manage to get it tied and go on to win.  On paper this should have been a romp, current Cy Young winner vs. a guy with the worst record in the majors.  Yet they have to battle to hang on and win.  I guess a win is a win and the ugliness won't matter in the end.

Former CY Young seems like a long long time ago.He is barely pitching like a decent # 4.That CY year now looks like an aberration.
With this offense, no game looks like a sure W let alone a romp. Kudos to Barnes who IMO is having a pretty good season.
