BOSTON: 0 0 2 0 0 0 2 1 0 - 5 11 2

Another Sunday morning at my favorite New England sports living bar and at the start of the game I'm the only patron and as usual Andrew is working. Rich has arrived and sitting at the bar. The Boston Red Sox are playing the Chicago White Sox in Fenway Park in the final game of a three-game series. Let's hope that if the score is once again three to one, it is the Red Sox with the three. Another regular, Lisa, has come in. Well, the White Sox have scored first, but Beckett has gotten out of a couple of jams. Just one more person has come into the bar and the new owner, Grant is around. Yeah! The Red Sox have scored and taken the lead! The Boston lead has lasted for three innings - now Chicago leads by one run. But wait - a homerun by Martinez puts the Red Sox back on top. Just hold on Boston! And they don't hold on - a blown save by Papelbon. Gee, Chicago takes the lead again - can Boston at least tie in the ninth? No, the Red Sox are swept by the White Sox - first time at home since 1991.
