Last Weekend's baseball

Loss Blue Jays 7, Red Sox 6, Beckett starting, another loss,Blue Jays 8, Red Sox 1, DiNardo starting, and a win with Clement starting Red Sox 6, Blue Jays 3…

Schilling, Foulke and Papelbon were outstanding, Clement, Beckett and DiNardo struggled with 10 hits and 7 runs in 3 innings. Yikes. But on the birght side, Manny rose from wherever he went, his winter slumber and cracked out 2 homeruns.

Let's focus on yesterday afternoon's win shall we? Ortiz, 2 run homerun in the first, then laid down a bunt for a single in the 6th inning. They had the Ortz shift going and he caught everyone off guard. Papi could have gotten up there with his huge homerun swings but he plays for the team, not himself. 8 and counting homeruns this season, Ortiz sees what he is up against and he lays down a bunt to get the single. Outstanding.

So we are 12-7.

Not bad, not bad at all. Day off today and then tomorrow, my birthday, Schilling starts the series off against Cleveland.
