Boston win the first 2, the next one tonight Monday 8 pm. Many thx to Jay to take Carolina manager post for the serie. Maybe it&Mac226;s the only way he could thing to be able to beat my team (hee hee), (since we will play 6 consecutives game before and after the All Star break, I am sure he want to analyze my managing skills)

Game 23
Castillo vs. Anderson (june 25th)
With no reliever available for Boston, Castillo had to pitch the game of his
life and he did. Carolina hitters could not generate anything against
Castillo. Even tired at the end of the game, the heart Carolina line up
cannot do anything.

Rolen give 1 run lead to Boston in the 1st with a HR (all he seems to be doing in Boston, HR and K), in the 2nd Boston score 1 again, Boone 1B, he stole second and then score on Fick 1B.Pujols get his team back in the game with a solo HR in the 4th, but after that nada for the Carolina. Boone did hit a Hr in the 6th to make the game out of reach of Carolina.
