Starting tonight, the Red Sox will play 15 of their next 19 games on the road, 13 of them (7 away, 4 home) against playoff contenders, a stretch that will go a long way towards determining their fate in 2009. Tonight, they started that stretch off on the right foot, beating Baltimore 6-5 despite another poor performance from John Smoltz. Smoltz gave up 5 runs in 6 innings of work, bringing his ERA to 7.12. Despite that, he got the win to improve to 2-4. Kevin Youkilis, David Ortiz, and Jacoby Ellsbury homered for the Sox who picked up a game on the Yankees who lost 10-5 to the White Sox.
Next Game: Saturday, 7:05 @ Baltimore
