Beckett breezes

Josh Beckett did indeed return to the mound for the seventh inning, breezing through the frame on just nine pitches, allowing one two-out hit to Bengie Molina. Beckett allowed just one run (which he walked in during his erratic first), three hits and walked four, three of them in the first. Through two games this season, his ERA sits at just 1.29.

Keith Foulke is warming up in the bullpen.
