John Lackey had a no-hitter going into the 9th before Pedroia broke it up with a single, Youk followed with a 2 run homer and that was it for the Sox offense tonight. Buchholz was ineffective again, going 6 1/3 and giving up 6 runs. (5 earned) Boston needs to trade for some bullpen help in case they need Masterson to start. Colon is not likely to be able to stay healthy for the remainder of the season.
