| The Sox come back home after a 5-5 road trip, and apparently suffered jet lag or forgot how to play the game after two days off as they suffer an embarassing loss to their former AL East foes in game one of a doubleheader. Looked like an easy win with the 0-5, ERA over 7 David Bush getting the start for the Brew Crew, but Bush is on top of his game not allowing a run until the 6th. Meanwhile, the Brewers get to Tim Wakefield early and often with solo runs in the 2nd, 3rd and 4th and a 3-run 6th gives Wake the loss. Overall, 10 walks given up for Sox pitchers today and over 200 pitches thrown. And as if the game hadn't sucked bad enough to that point, Alex Cora makes two errors and David Aardsma throws two wild pitches in the 9th inning to basically give Milwaukee 3 more runs. Aardsma just had to stay in to get his lumps with the bullpen being emptied out save for Papelbon. Not good news with game two of the doubleheader later in the day! |

the Boston Red Sox pitching staff, scoring 12 runs while David Bush(1-5),
with relief help from Mark Difelice, surrendered 3 runs to Boston.
Milwaukee went ahead for good in the top of the 2nd inning scoring a single
run. Milwaukee had many opportunities throughout the game and scored in 6
