Red Sox highlight: Kevin Youkilis' homerun
Red Sox lowlight: Missed third out in the bottom of the fourth
Orioles highlight: Winning run in the eighth
Orioles lowlight: Four men left on base

My Comment: If Daniel Bard is the heir apparent to Jonathan Papelbon, then he needs to stop losing games. Bard has three losses (tied with Clay Buchholz for most on the pitching staff), no wins, and no saves. Then again, if Papelbon keeps up his saving ways, perhaps an heir is unnecessary.

BOSTON: Starting Pitcher: Josh Beckett; Losing Pitcher: Daniel Bard (3)
BALTIMORE: Starting Pitcher: Jeremy Guthrie; Winning Pitcher: Koji Uehara
BALTIMORE: Save: Kevin Gregg
BOSTON: Homerun: Kevin Youkilis (5)
BALTIMORE: Homeruns: Luke Scott, Adam Jones

RED SOX: Wins 10, Losses 13, Percentage .435

Next game: Thursday 28 April 2011, 4:05 p.m.PT/7:05 p.m.ET, Baltimore Orioles, Oriole Park, Jon Lester
