Mike Lowell showed he was not rusty after spending all that time on the bench by hitting a home run in the first. He got some playing time since Youk was sidelined with back issues. Big Papi had a monster night going 3-5 with 4 RBI’s .
John Lackey had a good start going 6 innings and only giving up 2 earned runs. Boof pitched to scoreless innings, although he did give up 4 hits, and was able to bring his ERA down from infinity to 18.00.
