June 27, 200620 yr Author Play Ball! Beltran first baserunner of the game by way of the walk. Lester's pitch counts will be extremely key in this especially with an overworked Sox pen going tonight. Wow, Lester picks off Beltran. 0-0, Bottom of the 1st. Awesome, stand up double for Youk. Manny draws a walk. 2 on, 2 outs. Soler hits Trot to load em up. Unfortunately, Tek with the bases loaded has not been a thing of beauty. Hell yeah, 'Tek bats in 2. 2-0 Sox Lowell grounds out to end the inning. Sox tage Soler for 2 and work him for 42 pitches in the first. That's right, 42.

Lester K's Father Time. 2 down. Not to jack the thread at all and since its Pedro related he was recently interviewed before the game. I found some interesting quotes over on metsblog.com ?I wish [Red Sox owner John Henry] was here right now, so I could look at him and say that I got the four years? ?I wish [Admin Lucchino] was right here. I could tell him again, like I did then when I tilted my glasses down, and tell him that I got four years and he goes, ?No, bulls***,? I told him I got four years, after that they were leaving for the Winter Meetings, so now you know how much time they had to work it out. I remember John Henry saying, ?I don't care how many years you got. Just get it done.? Those were his exact words? ?I was stupid enough to say that I fell in love with Boston and that I didn't want to leave?They waited and then at the last moment they thought I was going to be there and that was a big mistake because at the time I had to think about my family and I had to think about my career. I didn't think I deserved to be wandering around going 'Where can I get three years.'? More on Metsblog

Get the force at 2nd off the ball of Gado's Bat. 1 down. Men on 1st and 3rd. 4 pitch walk to David Wright. Bases juiced. 1 down. A DP here would be glorious. Lester walks in Father Time and that brings in a run. 3-2. 1 down. This could get messy. Force out at home on Nady. Beautiful. 2 down. Woodward K's with the bases loaded. Thank god. 3-2 to the bottom of the 4th. A very, very quick inning in the 5th would be great for Mr. Lester, the pen, and the rest of this series.
June 28, 200620 yr Disappointing inning, especially with Lester on the ropes. Good news, Lester is nearing 80 pitches and the Sox pen is spent.
