Neither rain or sleet or snow could stop the Red Sox bats last night as they beat up the Phillies at home 10-6 in an elongated game due to a rain delay. Beckett pitches the series finale this afternoon.
The Sox are 9-2 so far in June. They are beating the top teams in each division. I say ride the wave, baby, because you know the law of averages & things will change. For now the Sox have opened a nice 3 1/2 game cushion between themselves & the Yankees who lost to the Mets yesterday.
It will be interesting to see how the Red Sox brass handles the Dice-K situation after another lackluster performance. I will say that it is hard for any pitcher to gear it back up after an hour & a half wait in the rain. I think the 6-man rotation is still a good possibility.
