Josh Beckett (25) started and went seven strong, allowing one run, one walk, and seven hits while striking out five.
Jonathan Papelbon (25) came on in the ninth inning, despite the fact that with a 2-1 lead, closer Keith Foulke should have been called upon. No matter. All Papelbon did was go 1-2-3 with 2 strikeouts to convert his first major league save.
Meanwhile Mike Timlin (40) pitched the eigth and allowed two hits, a walk, and a passed ball. He managed to get out of the inning unscathed thanks to a putout at homeplate on a relay play by Manny Ramirez and Alex Gonzalez.
Now, I realize much of this was related already in my last post, but I really just wanted an excuse to get these cool pictures up.
