Philadelphia Phillies (35-37) @ Boston Red Sox (42-28)
GAME: 7:05 EDT
TV: NESN
Radio: WEEI 850
Location: Fenway Park
RESULT OF PRIOR GAME
Red Sox 5, Phillies 10 (W: Cory Lidle, L: Lenny DiNardo)
Sox Star of the Game: Mike Lowell – 2-4, 2 R, 2 RBI, HR
Game Notes: The Sox look to nail down 7 straight, and Beckett looks to regain his game after an improved outing last week against the Braves. The Phils aren’t exactly a barnstormer of a club this year, but it’s still a dangerous lineup capable of putting the ball out of the park (especially with Bobby Abreu, Ryan Howard, and Pat Burrell in the middle of the order). Beckett’s HR rate has killed him all year, so that’s a thing to watch for.
