Beckett Looks Promising.

(Beckett was effective in his first start.)

(Youkilis is congratulated after his two run, 7th Inning HR.)

As bad as they looked on Opening Day, the Red Sox looked promising today. Led by an effectively wild Josh Beckett (5IP, 2H, 1ER, 5K 4 BB), and a seventh inning HR by 1B Kevin Youkilis, the Sox defeated the Royals by the same score as they lost on Monday, 7-1. Thats more like the Sox we all know and love! Tomorrow the Sox & Royals wrap up the seasons first series as Zack Greinke faces the Boston rookie phenom and media sensation Daisuke (Dice-K) Matsuzaka. Should be interesting to see how his first real MLB start goes.


GO SOX!
