Tampa Bay Starting Pitcher
Scott Kazmir (1-1, 4.82 ERA, 1.71 WHIP)

Boston Starting Pitcher
Tim Wakefield (1-2, 4.34 ERA, 1.39 WHIP)

[Fishercat]

Wake's losing 2-1 and he's pitching a one hitter through six, Kazmir's still sick

[Fishercat]

Kazmir's out with a high pitch count/left arm injury (apparently), Gomes went deep for a 3-1 lead

[Fishercat]

Gomes = Teh Beast.

This one's pretty much over, 4-1 D-Rays on two Gomes HRs, a passed ball, and a Cantu double

[Fishercat]

Manny and Lowell weaker hits, with a Willie Harris single, has the bases loaded for Trot it seems, time for a lefty to come in.

[Fishercat]

Well, if the Sox lose, at least Miceli should get a save out of it.

[Fishercat]

Ouch, Nixon K's on a pitch I think he could've crush with a lower, but uppercut swing, and it's up to Jason Varitek

[Fishercat]

Varitek flies out, and game over. TB with a solid 5-1 win with a little drama, and no fights. Good game for Kazmir, hope he's okay...just don't start against the Sox again. Damn Mets.
