Game 46: Cubbies 1 Sox 5

Wakefield looked awesome making the spot start for Lackey. Only one run over 6 and 2/3 innings of 4 hit, 0BB, 3 K ball. More of that and we won't miss Lackey or Matsuzaka. The win also gets him within 12 wins of the Red Sox all time win record (held by Roger Clemens and Cy Young). Bard and Papelbon close the door.

At the plates, Gonzalez had another great night going 4 for 4. Saltalamacchia hit another HR over the Monster and Youkilis had a big two run triple to the triangle that gave the Sox some breathing room. This was another night that everyone got a hit except Cameron and Crawford so the team is really playing great ball right now.

And it's a good thing too as the Sox head to Cleveland next to face the team with the best record in baseball, the Indians. Let's not get swept again!
