It's taken a while in this "one-step-forward, two-steps-back" kind of season, but your
Carmine Hose have
finally reached .500. For perspective, I think we should all remember
The Wolf's cautionary words in the garage scene in
Pulp Fiction. After all, .500 is the essence of mediocrity. Nevertheless, taking both games from Cincinnati is a good thing—and it also keeps
The Big Red Latrine winless at Fenway over a 39-year stretch. Last night's late-inning heroics came from
A.J. Pierzynski (game-tying RBI) and
Will Middlebrooks (game-winning RBI).
David Ortiz and
Mike Napoli (White House pronunciation: NA-
POLE-EEE) also had solo RBIs to pull Boston even.
Jake Peavy went six innings giving up three earned runs in
the 4-3 win. Boston now heads out for a six-game road trip before returning home to face red-hot Detroit on May 16th.
