My Comment: What a dramatic victory for the Boston Red Sox! A comeback win in the ninth and the Red Sox take three out of four against the Indians. So great to have such an unbelievable outcome to a game by all indications Boston would lose. And thanks for coming by Terry Francona - always good to see you!

My Comment: The Red Sox were very efficient to get all their runs in the second inning and without the benefit of a homerun. Amazing! It is good that the RedSox didn't let the intense emotions surrounding the Boston Marathon bombing yesterday prevent them from playing a good game. And it is great to hear of all the support for Boston around Major League Baseball in the wake of the senseless horrible act.

My Comment: Congratulations to Doubront on his first win of the season! Let's hope for many more and just as low-scoring. Boston looks to win the series tomorrow. Starting pitchers are Daniel Bard for Boston and Justin Masterson for Cleveland. Looking forward to this matchup. When Justin was sent to Cleveland by the Red Sox, I thought Boston should have kept him and sent Bard instead. Interestingly, they both have won a third of their games and have comparable ERAs this season. Should be enlightening.

My Comment: The Red Sox handily win the rubber game and the series over the Indians. Boston now has a new hitting high for the season and will look to see that production continue when they meet the Tigers tomorrow. Can Boston not have the usual hitting letdown after a game such as this? Hope the momentum stays strong. Special mention today of Carl Crawford who went four for four. More movement in the Boston lineup for Crawford who batted sixth today? Decisions, Francona, decisions.
