Meche Makes his Money
Gil Meche gives up a single to Pedroia and leaves the game with one out in the eighth to a standing ovation. He strikes out six and walks just one as he holds the Red Sox on one run and leaves just five out for the bullpen to pick up. Between Meche and Pena, Dayton Moore looks like a genius today.
Update: Joel Peralta comes on in relief. He gives up a single to Lugo, but comes back to strike out both Youkilis and Ortiz to end the threat.
