Tim Wakefield was once again plagued by the one bad inning. He gave up four runs in the third inning in a 5-4 extra-inning loss. Michael Bowden gave up a walk-off single, but Ramon Ramirez was hit with the loss. Marco Scutaro and Kevin Youkilis each hit RBI doubles.
This week, Red Sox begin to return from the disabled list. Today, Clay Buchholz is coming off the DL against Oakland, and he has given up one run. Meanwhile, Jed Lowrie is finally able to play, coming back from mononucleosis. In fact, he scored the first run on Adrian Beltre's RBI hit. And this Friday, the moment that all Red Sox fans have been waiting for happens. Josh Beckett will be pitching against Seattle for the BoSox. Unfortunately, Dustin Pedroia, Victor Martinez, Jason Varitek, Jeremy Hermida, and Jacoby Ellsbury remain disabled.
Trivia
The Oakland Athletics' starter last night, Dallas Braden, has not won a game since his perfect game on Mother's Day.
