Every once in a while, a hot team is gonna hit that wall. And yesterday, the Sox ran smack into Ervin Santana, who shut ’em down for seven and two-thirds innings. All you can do is shake it off and come back guns blazing today, hoping to split the series behind Jon Papelbon. In the meantime:
Renteria goes 2-for-4 and is showing signs of, y’know, possibly being worth that boatload of cash.
El Bencho gets a hit!
An amazing catch by Damon — off a Maicer Izturis shot that seemed all but certain to clear the bases in the seventh — is pretty much all that was standing between Mike Remlinger and a public lynching. Johnny, lunch is on Mike, forever.
All this and Schilling back on Thursday!
See you at four.
