Get Back, Loretta
OK, that was my Chris Berman side coming out... Sox won a great ballgame today, 7-6, on a walkoff homer from Mark Loretta. The Mariners manufactured a run in the top of the 9th to take the lead, and things looked bleak in the bottom of the 9th as both Wily Mo Pena and Dustan Mohr struck out. Kevin Youkilis beat out a ground ball (I repeat, Kevin Youkilis beat out a ground ball) to keep things alive, and then up stepped Loretta, who wasted little time depositing an Eddie Guardado fastball into the Monster seats.
Next up: those pesky Devil Rays, who come to town for three starting tomorrow night.
