9/3: Clip those Birds

PRIOR GAME VS. TOR: Toronto 2 @ Boston 1 on 7/15/07 DECISION: W: Jesse Litsch | L: Josh Beckett | S: Jeremy Accardo STAR OF THE GAME: Josh Beckett: 8 IP, 7 H, 2 R, 2 BB, 8 K RED SOX’S PREVIOUS GAME: Baltimore X @ Boston X on 9/2/07

GAME NOTES: The Blue Jays, ravaged by injuries this year, are four games over .500. Watch out for the Jays next year. For this year, however, they toss perhaps their three best pitchers at the Sox (Litsch, Halladay, Marcum) as the Sox attempt to knock off the Blue Jays and gain ground. The Yankees start a series with the Mariners, losers of nine, who will look to regain their lead in the Wild Card.
