Bostonist is the #1 News Source for Boston Red Sox
As Dustin Pedroia remarked post-win, "Seemed like every time [Francona] mixes it up, we do something good for him." It takes a man who knows his players inside and out to get that kind of a track record going. Red Sox Nation ought to send that man a complimentary tub of Dubble Bubble.
There was nothing to complain about from Boston starter Brad Penny; his numbers - 6 IP, 6 K, 6 hits, 2 runs - would be plenty for a W if the offense could have scratched anything else up against the M's' Garrett Olson and company. Jon Lester will try to avert the sweep today.
