Red Sox Take the Lead
A walk to Pedroia, a double by Ortiz and a ground out by Youkilis and the middle of the Red Sox lineup is back in the business of generating offense. Boston takes a 2-1 lead in the top of the third. The two through five hitters collected three hits and two walks so far, and are responsible for both Boston runs.
Update: Walks to Drew and Bay load the bases with two out. The Red Sox have a chance to break the game open with Kotsay at the plate.
Update: Kotsay flies deep to center, but not deep enough as Upton pulls it in. Four batters reach in the inning, but only one scores as the Red Sox take a 2-1 lead in the third.
Did they really just have Jeter endorsing a product? NOW?
