MANNY GETS 400, SOX GET A LOSS


Manny Ramirez became the 4th player to hit 400 Homeruns and the 5th to do it in a Red Sox uniform. Gil Meche was the 262nd different pitcher Manny hit a homer off of.

Unfortunately, Manny's homerun was not enough as Wakefield couldn't hold the Mariners and the offense couldn't really capitalize on any baserunners.

The Man of the Game is Miguel Olivo who went 3 for 4 with a double and a homer. He wasn't even supposed to play but Gonzalez was injured. He knocked in 2 and scored 2 runs.

The Bitch-Goat shall be divided thusly:
Millar: 0.2 - 0 for 4, 4 LOB
Renteria: 0.2 - 0 for 5, 3 LOB
Wakefield: 0.6 - 7 IP, 5 ER

The Sox should roll in and out of Oakland this weekend.
