      Beckett...

GAME NOTES:
The Red Sox (read: Julio Lugo) coughed one up last night. There’s no better time for the ace to take the hill than after a tough loss. The name Justin Verlander usually strikes fear into opponents’ hearts. This season however, the picture for Tigers fans, hasn’t been so rosy. A 6.28 ERA has lead to a horrific 1-5 start. But he’s got the talent and I wouldn’t put it past him figuring it all out tonight for this marquis match up. And, oh yeah, Lugo’s in the lineup tonight….any chance he could redeem himself?
