Red Sox / Orioles - Game 20

Yuck! Orioles 8 - Red Sox 4.

There seems to be a good David Wells and a very bad David Wells. Last night we got the very bad David Wells. He pitched 3 2/3 innings while giving up 6 runs. Yuck!

Wells' 4.91 ERA puts him 110th in the AL. For context - Mike Mussina is at 103 with a 4.50 and Brad Radke is 113th with his 5.08. Wells 29 1/3 innings ptched however is 8th in the AL. Wells ability to be a workhorse may be hindered by whatever injury he sustained last night. It looked like he pulled up lame on a grounder by Lopez.

Johnny Damon went 3 for 3 in the game and is now hitting .358 (good for 7th in the AL).

Last night was an ugly game to watch for a Sox fan. Time to put it behind us.

Tonight's game looks like a pitchers duel in the making with Lopez and his 1.91 ERA going for Baltimore and Clement with his 2.13 ERA going for the Sox. That means it will probably be a slugfest.
