Wow, I’ll bet Dice-K qualifies for the league leaderboard in ERA now. 8 scoreless innings, only 2 hits! Sure, he walked two, but that still leaves his WHIP for the day at 0.5, his best since April Fools Day (sadly, that’s not a joke). Add a nice performance by the offense (I’ll even overlook the 12 they LOB), and the Right Sox win over the Wrong Sox.

With the Wrong Sox in town, seeing Orlando Cabrera makes me sad. He was such a favorite of mine in ‘04, and I always rooted for him with “the The Angels Angels of Anaheim”. Until, that is, the playoffs last year. He hit a double, and as he stood on second, he did the popping the name thing with his jersey, showing off the “Angels” on his chest with an angry look on his face. So far as I know, neither the Sox, the Boston media, or the fans said anything bad about him when he left, which considering their actions upon the departure of players like Pedro, Manny, and Nomar is shocking. Why did Orlando need to show up the Boston fans who still cheer for him?

I swear Remy said Michael Bolton starts tomorrow. I know he meant Michael Bowdon, but I just had an Office Space moment. Good luck with your debut, kid.
