Games 132 & 133 - Red Sox
Rays 8, Red Sox 5
Red Sox 6, Rays 3
Record: 78-54
John Smoltz is 1-1 with a 2.65 ERA, a 0.82 WHIP, and 21 Ks in 17 innings for the Cardinals. Brad Penny pitched 8 innings of scoreless 5-hit baseball against the Phillies in his first start for San Francisco. The two combined for a 9-14 record, 6.24 ERA and 1.68 WHIP in 171 2/3 innings for the Sox.
Stuff your small sample size in a sock, pal. That's gruesome testimony to the imbalance between the American and National Leagues. And Exhibit A for the reason the Sox find themselves staring up at the Yankees as September rolls around.
Bygones. The Sox won a series in Tampa. Praise the Lord and pass Josh Beckett some greenies.
