Settling for a Split – Sox Win 2-1 by Day, Get Torched by Night With 9-1 Loss

It was good to see Colon look much better than he did in Baltimore, with Bobby Jenks able to close out the Mariners in spite of some tense moments in the ninth.  Danks did not have as good of an evening in game 2, giving up 5 earned over just 4 innings of work, with Carrasco and Broadway not faring much better.  This is a blip on the screen for Danks, who had an ERA under 1 coming into tonight’s ballgame.  He didn’t have a good night, but he has done his share so far, and I expect he will continue to do so as the season goes on because he is a bulldog, a fighter, a winner.  Let’s go for the series win tomorrow…
