Through the Wickets
After the war of words in his last at bat, Lofton grounds a ball back to the mound that goes through Beckett's legs for an error. That probably makes Lofton feel a bit better.
Update: Lofton is the only runner to reach in the inning as Beckett records his tenth strikeout. That's twenty five strikeouts for Beckett in twenty two post-season innings. He's also gotten the Red Sox through seven innings, meaning Boston doesn't need to deal with any of their second line relievers tonight.
