Casey at the Bat

Mike Lowell singles to start the ninth against Embree, bringing in Sean Casey to make his Red Sox debut as a pinch hitter.

Update: Casey does his best Jim Rice impersonation by grounding into a double play. It's up to Varitek.

Update: Varitek strikes out to end the game. That's 13 on the game for Boston batters, a level they only reached or exceeded three times last season. Varitek now has struck out six times in eight at bats.

Rich Harden gets the win and the A's bullpen puts in a solid outing, allowing two hits and no walks while striking out three over three innings of work.

A's fans also have to be happy that Oakland generated ten runs over the two games. This isn't a bad offensive team.
