Ubaldo vs. Manny

After Jimenez walks Ortiz with two out in the fifth, Ramirez and the Rockies starter go at it. Jimenez starts him with a ball, then Manny swings through two pitches. He fouls off the next pitch, then pulls an inside fastball for a hit. Great adjustments by Ramirez in that at bat. Then Lowell pulls one into the leftfield corner to score Ortiz and give the Red Sox a 2-1 lead. That's it for Jimenez as Drew comes to bat with men on second and third.

Update: Affeldt walks Drew, failing to get the one lefty. Herges comes in to try to keep it a one-run game. The number of walks issued by the Rockies in this series is amazing.

Update: Herges is no Speier as he gets Varitek to fly out to end the inning. Now the pressure is on the Rockies offense to generate some offense against Schilling.
