A nice win in Baltimore, but...
When Matt Clement took the mound at Fenway on September 3rd 2005, the Sox were standing 5-8 in the season series against the Orioles, having lost the 2004 season series to the Orioles, despite that teams .481 'winning' record that year. And here we are 12 games later, and no Sox pitcher knows what it feels like to lose to them since... the team has averaged 7.25 runs a game, while giving up an even 3 - that is winning baseball!
Tom Carron and Jim Rice on the NESN Extra Innings (I think I am contractually obliged to mention that the show is brought to you by WB Mason... or is it Granite City...) Show were obsessing on an apparent finger injury to Josh Beckett - I didn't see any evidence of it in game - and the mound visit was ascribed to an ankle issue - and it wasn't mentioned in either Beckett's or Francona's post game comments, but they have stressed it enough to have me worried about the morning papers - alarming pictures here, although context might be a nice thing to have...

Was glad to read that the longest winning streak against one team for the Sox was 16 against Chicago, lets hope they can set a new record against the O's this year (would guarantee 14 win's vs O's) for the year. You know the streak has to end sooner or later.
hope you were able to answer the AFLAC trivia question. LOL
