Lugo takes strike one to start the top of the third. And a foul for 0-2. Lugo's out, grounding to Matsui.
Lester can't have batted many times as a Major Leaguer. He takes strike one. And ball one. He puts it in play, grounding to Atkins. Two down. He didn't look too bad out there.
Ball one to doubles machine Jacoby Ellsbury. Ball two. A swinging strike, 1-2. Jacoby's bat explodes as he grounds to Matsui.
Cook has been as economical with hit pitches as anyone I've ever seen.
Inning: 10 pitches, 7 strikes; Game: 29 pitches, 21 strikes. That's for three full innings. Or little more than 2 on the Mazzone-meter.
1-0 Sox.
