Boston Red Sox @ Texas Rangers
TIME: 8:05 PM EDT in Arlington, TX (Ameriquest Field)
TV: NESN
RADIO: WEEI 850
RESULT OF PRIOR GAME
Boston Red Sox 7, Texas Rangers 3 (W: Curt Schilling. L: Kevin Millwood)
Sox Star of the Game: David Ortiz – 5 AB, 2 R, 3 H, 3 RBI
GAME NOTES: Trot Nixon stayed in and got a single against a left-hander yesterday. If the Rangers bring a lefty in the late innings to face Nixon, is Francona going to stay with Nixon or go to Wily Mo Pena? Francona has said that the Pena addition should caution managers from bringing in lefties to face Nixon because they may have to face Pena – which is true, but managers won’t stop. If it’s a tight game, the tying run on second, and Brian Shouse comes in to face Nixon, what will Francona do?
