Location: Fenway Park
RESULT OF PRIOR GAME
The Red Sox have never played the Washington Nationals. The last time the Sox played the Montreal Expos was on July 17th, 2001. The final score was 11-7 Expos, with Troy Mattes getting the win and Tim Wakefield taking the loss. The Sox Star of the Game was Shea Hillenbrand, who went 3-5 with a run and 2 RBI.
Game Notes: With the entire AL East losing yesterday afternoon, the Sox took hold of their opportunity and beat the Braves in an exciting, back and forth contest locked down in the 8th and 9th by Jonathan Papelbon, who gathered his 23rd save. Tonight, we give the ball to Kyle Snyder, who was picked up off waivers as a warm body to put on the mound for this game. He’ll be facing former Sox prospect Tony Armas, Jr, who is best known for being the player to be named later, sent to Montreal for Pedro Martinez during the 1997/1998 offseason. I’ll be in attendance. If anyone actually knows anything about Kyle Snyder, leave it in the comments.
