We got another quality start from Arroyo-- his 4th in a row, and the Sox have won in the last 5 games he's pitched.

Believe me it didn't look so good early on. A 29 pitch inning with 13 of them balls. He gave up hits to a couple of hitters hovering at the Mendoza Line. He managed to settle down though and let me tell you, Manny killed that ball he hit for a homer. I was standing off to the back along 1st base line and it sounded solid when he nailed it.

Timlin pitched a good ninth, Papelbon came in an got a K in the 8th and the team played well save for the 10 strike outs, 46,000 fans there and I'd say 2/3 were Sox fans. The introductions for the Sox got way louder cheers than the O's.
