Papelbon Vs. Rodriguez
After a 2:25 rain delay, Jonathan Papelbon strikes out Alex Rodriguez on three pitches. The Red Sox lead 4-3 in the bottom of the eighth.
Update: Papelbon retires the side in the ninth, striking out two more. Francona trusted Jon's judgement that he could come back after the rain delay and three warmups, and the closer delivered. The Red Sox win 4-3 to go back into a tie with New York.
