Sox 4/8/2006 - Baltimore

ESPN Box Score

Schilling goes 7 strong innings and shuts down the O's with only 3 hits, and 2 walks. For a while I thought he was going to be able to go 8 and then we wouldn't have to worry about Timlin but the seventh was a struggle that he finished well by striking out Conine on a 96mph fast ball on his 111th pitch.

Pitching wise you have to give the team a solid A, but the offense struggled for the 2nd time in 3 games. The biggest mistakes were made in the 6th when the boys had base runners on 2nd and 3rd base with no outs and did not get them home. Those type of things normally come back to bite you in the rear during a game but the arms bailed out the offense by only allowing the lead off home run in the bottom of the inning.

Today its Wakefield and I fully expect him to try and one up Schilling and Beckett. Should be a good game and starts at 1:35 today.
