Wow. That was a TOWERING homerun. Youkilis is so nasty, it's ridiculous. Hoping for a good outing from Pedro...

[RedSoxRooter]

Yeah, what a bomb. I'm digging the defense too - it's like the whole infield is playing great defense right now. :)

[RedSoxRooter]

awsome game. It was SO worth taking the afternoon off from work to see a Pedro shutout!!!!!!! :D :D :D

[yeszir]

I missed it. Oh well, seems like it was a good game.

[elsrbueno]

A win is always good, a Pedro shutout better.

Three in a row, let's ride the momentum into the Chicago series!

[CalvnHobs6]

THAT is what baseball is all about. How is it that Pedro just gets better and better with each game he pitches?

[Zenny]

Pe-friggin'-dro is back.

Glad that it was on ESPN, very impressed by Pedro, 9 scoreless how often does that happen, of course he was facing the D-Rays.

I'm glad to hear:
Pedro got up to 95 on the gun
Pedro averages 6 2/3 ip per game now
Pedro got a shutout
The sox have won 3 in a row
We are in first in the wild card
Everyone is contributing

Not to be optimistic or anything, but I like the look of things right now.

we need more optimsim!

Sometimes as Red Sox fans we are too had on our team because we expect to win, well now we are in the lead of the wild card, and are winning so everythings good.

[elsrbueno]

I think we as Red Sox are so used to failure, it's so easy to expect it with every slump this team goes through. It's hard to find optimism sometimes...but now it's relatively easy after we pounded the D-Rays three straight.

I had the pleasure of being at the game yesterday, and man ive never been in such an awesome place. I've been to fenway before when I was younger but didnt know much about the redsox then. But now since I know everything about the sox, there was such an electrifying feeling in the crowd watchin pedro pitch a complete game shutout, the first in 4 years for him, he looked like old pedro...and what makes it even better is that this happened late in the season. Man what a thrill it was to be at the game yesterday, one of my greatest experiences ever.

[Tek04]

Pedro also only had 1 3 ball count....thats amazing
