08/06: We Can't Come Back Every Time PRIOR GAME AGAINST OPPONENT: Red Sox 5, Devil Rays 8 on 8/5/06

DECISION: W: Casey Fossum | L: David Wells | S: Brian Meadows

STAR OF THE GAME: Manny Ramirez – 4 AB, 1 R, 2 H, 3 RBI

GAME NOTES: Can’t win them all, I guess. Javy Lopez was dissapointing in the final frame, but it’s okay. I’m confident he’ll end up doing us more good than bad, I would have to imagine he’s got to get into a groove catching again and get over the butterflies with a new team. A young lefty will take the mound, and hopefully the bats will awaken and carry Jason Johnson over these pesky Rays.
