Clay Buccholz looks beat the Orioles for the fourth straight time tonight. Standing in his way is Brad Bergesen, who has been very up and down against the Red Sox going 1-2 with a 4.50 ERA in 3 starts versus Boston this season.
The Red Sox are really just trying to finish up this season on a high not, but there are still guys on this roster with something to prove. V-Mart is a free agent after this season and is showing he wants to get paid by batting .407 with three homers and 10 RBIs in his last six games. Beltre is also doing well hitting .389 with a HR and 2 RBI over the past 7 days.
Buchholz should get the win tonight. After going 0-2 with a 5.40 ERA in his previous 3 outings, he threw 7 innings of one-run ball last time out. I except something around that stat line again tonight.
Boston win 6-2
Player of the Game: Buchholz/V-Mart
