WS Game 2 Bottom 3

Jacoby Ellsbury is in the box. Ball one. At 2-2 he grounds to Matsui.
Lugo takes strike one. And at 0-2 he grounds to Matsui.
Hey Dustin, try somebody else. Ball one. Pedroia walks on four straight.
Youk has been great with people on base. Ball one. Jimenez has lost the plate, Torrealba recognizes it, and so he visits the mound. At 1-2 Youk has to hit the dirt to avoid one at his head. 2-2. With the count full, Tito starts Pedroia, but Youk fouls it off his foot. Ball four. First and second for Papi.
Ortiz takes strike one on the outside. Way outside. Off the black outside. Not a strike outside. Ball, for 1-1. Ball two, 2-1. Foul alongside Pesky's Pole, 2-2. Papi spoils a good pitch. Diaz calls Papi for a swing on a pitch at his bellybutton. That's the inning.
Jimenez, Inning: 24 pitches, 12 strikes; Game: 43 pitches, 25 strikes.
His first stressed inning.
Still, 1-0 Rockies.
