Boston Red Sox

Out of order

Less than a minute to read

With a combined 0 for 6 under their belts in the 7-8-9 slots in the batting order, Alex Cora, Doug Mirabelli, and Willie Harris are currently batting .229, .146, and .143, respectively.

They’ve also done their part to kill a pair of scoring chances for Boston, which had put two runners on in each of the second and fourth innings.

  • The boo birds have grown even louder every time Johnny Damon steps to the plate, thanks to his 2 for 2 night.

    Wakefield finally got him out in the fifth inning on a strike him out, throw him out double play, striking Damon out at the plate, and Doug Mirabelli nailing Andy Philips trying for second.
