Reddick homers twice in Drive win


7/24 Cup of Coffee: Well after a 13 hour drive yesterday, I am back at the keyboard enjoying another cup of coffee, although this time it is Tim Hortons rather than Dunkin Donuts. Last night's schedule was a rather light one with Lancaster, Lowell and the Gulf Coast Red Sox all enjoying the day off.

Pawtucket edged Louisville 3-2 in 10 innings. David Pauley had a strong outing going 7 1/3 innings. He allowed 2 runs on 6 hits while striking out 7. He did not give up a BB. Travis Hughes (5-3) pitched 2 1/3 innings of relief and earned the win. He did not allow a run on just 1 hit. He walked 3 and struck out 4. David Murphy led the offense going 3 for 5 with 2 runs scored. Joe McEwing went 2 for 5 with a home run. Ed Rogers went 3 for 4 while Michael Tucker went 2 for 3.

Portland fell 5-3 to New Hampshire. Chris Smith (3-6) started and took the loss giving up 5 runs on 12 hits and 3 BB in 6 1/3 innings. He had 5 Ks. Chad Povich finished the last 2 2/3 frames and did not allow a run on 2 hits and a BB. He had a K. Andrew Pinckney went 2 for 4 while Bryan Pritz went 1 for 4 with 2 RBI.

Greenville defeated Savannah 8-2. Ryan Phillips (2-2) went 5 innings to earn the in. He allowed 1 run on 6 hits and 2 BB. He had 6 Ks. Jorge Rodriguez pitched 2 scoreless innings of relief. He allowed 1 hit and 2 BB while fanning 1. Richie Lentz faced 3 batters giving up 1 run on 1 hit and 2 BB. Josh Papelbon threw 2 perfect innings of relief with 4 Ks.

In the Dominican Summer League, the Red Sox dropped a doubleheader to the Blue Jays by scores of 2-0 in 14 innings and 5-1 in a 7 inning contest. Lefthander Nestor Lastreto took the loss in the first game giving up 2 runs on 3 hits in the 14th inning. Wilfi Santana went 2 for 5 in the game. In the second game, Edwin Lopez blew the save and took the loss allowing 5 runs on 5 hits and 3 BB in the top of the 7th. Ronald Bermudez went 2 for 2 with a BB in the game. He is now hitting .374.

Player of the Night: Josh Reddick who had 2 home runs and 6 RBI to lead the Drive to a win.
