  • Hero - Tim Wakefield - for going 7 innings of 3 hit ball and no runners past 2nd
  • Goat - In a 2:33 minute game there is none
Wakefield was masterful as only 2 players for the Twins got even got hits off of him. As is usual though he did not get much run support. Thankfully Big Papi came through in the sixth with a solo blast into the upper upper part of right field and J.D. Drew led off the ninth with a triple in the left field gap, followed one out later by a single into right by Coco Crisp. On a night like tonight that was more than enough to get the job done.

The Sox are now 16 and 3 against teams that are .500 or better.

Lowell failed to get Drew home in the ninth, only the 2nd time in six attempts that he has failed to score the runner from 3rd with less than 2 outs this year. Coco made it 2 for 4 in this situation.

All in all a good game by the Sox and the Twins and a very good win for the Sox.
