The Short and Long of Longballs

Scott Kazmir gives up another shot to Dustin Pedroia, and one out later Kevin Youkilis takes him deep. Each starter now has allowed three home runs and five runs in the game. The 2 through 5 hitters in the Red Sox lineup are five for nine with two walks. They've driven in and scored all five runs. The game is tied at five in the fifth inning.

Update: Balfour comes into the game and Jason Bay takes him deep for a 6-5 Red Sox lead. The 2-5 hitters add another run and another RBI. That ties a post-season record for most home runs in a game, seven.

Update: After Balfour walks two, J.P. Howell comes in and gets the last two outs. The Rays find themselves behind for the third time this game. The other two times they were able to score.
