Tough start for Matsuzaka... Luckily for us, offense brought us right back.

Where is Papelbon tonight?

Matsuzaka translated into English means "Skinny Hideki Irabu."

He pitched like crap tonight.

Shatsuzaka.

At least we don't have to see Mike Timlin for at least 15 days. Hopefully Tavarez goes back to the pen and Hansack starts.

What was wrong with Dice K?!?

Wily Mo Pena 4 for 4 and Manny waking up!!!

I think Dice-K will be ok. He's just in a bit of a tough stretch right now. Nice to see the team be able to win this game despite giving up 7 runs. Manny with two bombs and I guess WMP is no longer a bum again.
