In Rogers Centre today, it was the young Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Buchholz versus the veteran Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Halladay. Youth won over the Ace. This was not a duel - Clay had game today, Roy did not. Buchholz doubles the number of his wins. Hits and runs in this second game of a three-game series were primarily supplied by the Red Sox, with the favorite way of scoring being the homerun. Boston has won this series against Toronto. Tomorrow the Red Sox will attempt the sweep. Keep up the hitting! (And the pitching). Boston is leading the AL Wild Card, all alone.
