10 down, 23 more to go

The one and only, Jessica Alba

The Red Sox made it 2 in a row tonight by coming back to beat the White Sox once again. We had a 2-1 lead going into the 7th and gave up the tying run on a strike out-passed ball, then another run on a line drive that clipped off of Lowell's glove for a 3-2 deficit. We came back in the bottom of the 7th to tie the game on a V-Mart clutch single to bring in Nick Green. Then we got out of a major 8th inning jam (1st and 3rd, no outs) which provided us with a jolt that translated into a Jason Bay homer and 2 more runs in the bottom of the 8th. Papelbon wrapped up the save. Exciting game.

Note: Jacoby Ellsbury set the Red Sox team stolen base record by stealing his 55th base of the season in the first inning tonight. Congratulations to him. I'd like to see him steal 70 bases this season.
