SOX UP 3.5 ON YANKEES AFTER 9-4 WIN

The Sox pounded 5 homers against Jamie Moyer and the Mariners en route to a 9-4 win. Kyle Snyder pitched well, allowing 2 runs in 5 innings before leaving with a leg cramp.

Kason Gabbard will make his MLB debut this afternoon as the starting pitcher. It is the 11th different starter the Sox have used this season, tying 2002's total. 2002 was also the last year we didn't make the playoffs.

Over the off-season, we definately must acquire some starting pitching.

The Yankees have been sucking as of late, dropping two straight to the Blue Jays. Toronto is now 5.5 behind us for 1st place and 2 behind New York for 2nd place. It's amazing what things like getting rid of Shea Hillenbrand can do for a team. We need to continue to beat up on bad tems like Seattle and Kansas City.
