When I logged off last night, the Red Sox were beating the Twins, and the Phillies were losing to the Giants. Then, Papelbon coughed one up (that's two in one week - just about your yearly allotment, Mr. Papelbon) and the Phils - riding the returning Jimmy Rollins - came back to win.
Today, the Sox won (backed by a Papelbon save and a rare three-walk, seven-inning, 96-pitch start by Daisuke Matsuzaka), and the Phils' 45-year-old Jamie Moyer was bested by 23-year-old Tim Lincecum.
Of course, we saw neither game because Fox picked the Yankees-Tigers match-up, which blocked out the local team.
Prediction: Ryan Howard is going to bust out soon, and J-Roll will be credited for it.
