No walks ... but he runs!



We had a fun weekend watching the Cubs vs. Sox matchup in Wrigley Field. When Roger was asked by a friend whether he was conflicted over which team to root for, Roger said, "No, this one is easy. Either team wins, I'm happy."

I like Derrek Lee, but I really wanted Tim Wakefield to come away with the win. And he did! Not only by throwing his unhittable knuckleball, but by hitting (1 RBI) and baserunning too (coming in to score all the way from 1st base)! And he issued no walks!

As Boston Globe reporter Chris Snow wrote, "Tim Wakefield didn't throw a complete game last night. He played one."

I like it when our pitchers can hit. Wade Miller got two base hits on Saturday! He became the first Boston pitcher to have a multihit game since Sonny Siebert did it against the Yankees in 1972.
