Sorry you guys. Last night was my buddy Geoff’s stag do and I didn’t get to bed until 5. I was planning on blogging as soon as I woke up, but by the time I rolled over at 12:30PM I had completely forgotten. I didn’t even do anything this morning. I played Backyard Baseball for PS2 for an hour and a half.
Anyway the Red Sox won last night in 10 innings.
Porcello had a quality start.
| Pitchers | IP | H | R | ER | BB | SO | HR | ERA |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Porcello | 6.0 | 9 | 3 | 3 | 1 | 5 | 0 | 5.54 |
De Aza had an RBI double in the top of the 2nd. JBJ also had a sac fly in that inning.
Napoli scored on a double steal with Swihart in the 4th.
Xander made a heads up play in the bottom of the 8th, cutting down Longoria who was trying to advance to 3rd with one out.
Mookie sparked the game-winning rally with a leadoff double in the top of the 10th, extending his hitting streak to 13 games in the process.
The next batter was Brock Holt! who singled Betts home, giving the Red Sox a 4-3 lead.
Koji closed the door with a 1-2-3 bottom of the tenth with two strikeouts.
All Red Sox starters had one hit, except for Ortiz who had two.
