Sox take two of three from M's
May 28-30, 2004
Game 1: Boston 9, Seattle 3 Curt Schilling outduels Jamie Moyer in the first meeting of the season between the teams... Game MVP: Nomar, who goes 3-for-4 with an RBI...
Game 2: Seattle 13, Boston 11 For details, check the WAY TOO LONG Fox reports above... sorry about that folks -- that game got away from me, report wise...
WP: R Soriano. LP: Mike Timlin. MVP: Rich Aurilia, who went 3-for-5 with 4 RBIs... (for some reason I kept calling Seattle "Oakland" in my initial reports above. I hope I edited all of those references correctly...)
Game 3: Boston 7, Seattle 6 Once again, not much of a pitcher's duel. Seattle roughs up Pedro for six runs in the third inning (his worst performance of the season). Fortunately, Boston rallies from 6-2 deficit and gets game-winning runs in the seventh.
WP: Scott Williamson (2-1) LP: R. Johnson (0-2) S: K. Foulke (8)
MVP: David Ortiz, who hit a big home run. Mark Bellhorn hit a 430-foot bomb as well...
What's next?
An exciting month of June looms for the Red Sox... The amateur draft is up next... Will Boston start looking to shore up its lineup with some summer trading?... Interleague play begins in the middle of the month. The Sox will take on the NL West (San Diego, Colorado, San Francisco -- pitch to Bonds? -- and Los Angeles)...
