Mariners highlight: Felix Hernandez's pitching

Red Sox highlight: Carl Crawford's walk-off RBI single
Red Sox lowlight: Six men left on base

My Comment: Tim Wakefield should have been left in to complete the sixth inning. I'm sure he would have managed to get the third out without having to give up any runs. And at the end of the sixth, Tim would have been in line for the win. Tim deserved better than to have the ball taken away from him when Terry Francona did so.

SEATTLE: Starting Pitcher: Felix Hernandez; Losing Pitcher: Jamey Wright
BOSTON: Starting Pitcher: Tim Wakefield; Winning Pitcher: Jonathan Papelbon (1)

RED SOX: Wins 12, Losses 15, Percentage .444

Next game: Monday 2 May 2011, 4:10 p.m.PT/7:10 p.m.ET, Los Angeles Angels, Fenway Park, Clay Buchholz
