Brian Fuentes relieves Herges, and gets a called strike on Tek. At 1-1, a broken bat grounder to the fine Rockies' shortstop; Tulo on to Helton for out number one.
Ball to Lugo. At 3-1, Lugo walks. One on, one out.
Crisp will bat for the first time, having come in on the double switch in the bottom of the seventh. Coco takes strike one. Coco singles softly to center at 1-1. First and second, one out.
Ellsbury has had a good night, 3/4. Ball one is way outside, great stop by Torrealba. He has saved his pitchers several times throughout the Series. Ellsbury doubles down the right field line, scoring Lugo. Crisp to third. What a night for Jacoby! 7-5 Sox. What's the best way to turn momentum? Score more runs after the other team gets close. Just what the Sox are doing.
Strike one to Pedroia. Hurdle has his infield in. Nothing but help for a smart kid like Dustin. Dustin doubles to right also! Two more runs score! How 'bout these kids? 9-5 Sox!
Youk bats for the first time and takes ball one. At 2-2 Youk grounds to Atkins; Dustin stays at 2nd.
Manny is up. They will pitch to him. Sort of. Ball one, well outside. Ball two, way inside. Strike one, called; 2-1. Manny skies one, a Major League pop up, to Holliday for the third out. Great inning!
Going to the bottom of the 8th, 9-5 Sox.
