Sox Lose Close One 4-1

My brother hates low-scoring games. Being a former pitcher I appreciate a well pitched game on both sides. Unfortunately, Felix Doubront came out the tough luck loser last night as the Sox offense could only muster 1 run on 2 hits. That one run was a statement homer by Kevin Youkilis in his first game back from a 22 game DL stint. How ironic was it for Youk to field questions about Middlebrooks before the game & then get a high 5 from him after his home run! Michael Douglas said "greed is good" in Wall Street. In baseball competition is good. As I said before, you can't have enough good players out there & Youk knows he is competing for his job. A win this afternoon would be a nice way to finish this road trip.
