Ortiz
15 September 2008
Lowrie's sac fly to deep right in the bottom of the sixth started them off. Then Ortiz's take down of Marco Scutaro in the 7th allowed Ellsbury to score run number four on Youkilis' fielder's choice. The Sox just needed one more to tie it up.

the Fenway Faithful were thrilled by his show of strength, no one was happier with the outcome than Ortiz himself. All that time on the DL and the slow recovery at Pawtucket paid off. Our Big Papi is back!

an tie Tampa for the lead in the AL East tonight as Beckett takes the mound, going for his 6th win. Ortiz is on the 15 DL with a torn ECU tendon-- known as the extensor carpi ulnaris to us science geeks. Theo & Francona are in agreement that surgery wont be necessary; we'll wait and see if the Vader-like cast will do the trick. JD Drew was the offensive star of last night's win, going 2 for 3 along with Coco Crisp's off the wall tie breaking double. Dice-K's replacement Justin Masterson allowed four runs on six hits in six innings-- he's 2-0 with a The Rays are 0-4 at Fenway Park this season; 65-88 since their inaugural season 10 years ago. They'll return for a final 3 game series in September following tomorrow nights game.

al series in McAfee Coliseum. Duchscherer's no-hit bid late last night was spoiled by an Ortiz single hit to right field, what proved to be the only Sox hit of the night.
Manny watchers had to wait another day for HR #499; given the night off due to as his .189 batting average in his last 23 at-bats, we'll wait and see if this small break breathes new life into bat.

Drew comes up lame, Ortiz goes 0-4 with 5 left on base, and Papelbon gives up 1 run on three hits in the 10th inning. Call it fortunate or just call it the Manny and Moss show. Down 2-0 in the sixth, with Pedroia at second after doubling to right, and Youk on first from a walk, Manny lined a one out double down the third base line to score both runners. After Lowell struck out, Brandon Moss singled between first and second to give the Sox a 3-2 lead. Dice K was fired up in the dugout, he somehow had a chance at a W.
