Sox go back-to-back-to-back-to-back!
Sox hit 4 consecutive HRs versus the Yankees tonight... It's the first time the Sox ever hit 4 consecutive HRs - and how sweet that they were against our arch rival?
3rd inning... Manny, J.D. Drew, Mike Lowell, and Varitek versus Yankee pitcher Chase Wright.... SWEEEEEEEET!
p.s. It's Terry Francona's birthday!

Pitcher jerks off then throws 5 scoreless innings
http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2837771
Yanks' Wang throws hitless, scoreless five innings
Associated
TAMPA, Fla. -- Yankees right-hander Chien-Ming Wang didn't allow a hit over five scoreless innings in an extended spring training game Saturday.
Wang
It was Wang's first outing since he hurt his right hamstring while running on March 23. The 19-game winner last season is scheduled to pitch in another minor league game Thursday -- likely with Class-A Tampa -- and might rejoin the Yankees' rotation for a start April 24 at Tampa Bay.
"He's going to pitch one more time here and then we'll see what happens after that," Yankees vice president Billy Connors said. "He's almost right there."
Pitching against Tampa Bay minor leaguers, Wang struck out six and walked one. He threw 35 of 55 pitches for strikes.
"I thought it was very good for the first time out," Connors said. "He did a great job."
Wang struggled with his control early on, walking one and throwing seven of 14 pitches for balls during the first. He then struck out two in each of the next two innings.
"No problems," Wang said. "I felt stronger [each inning]."
Wang will play catch Sunday and is scheduled to have a bullpen session Monday.

Sox Trivia: Wakefield's Service...
RHP Tim Wakefield, who went six innings in his first start Friday, has pitched in 13 consecutive seasons for Boston, matching Bob Stanley (1977-89) and Roger Clemens (1984-96) for the most in team history by pitchers. The only position players with at least 13 years of continuous service in Boston are Carl Yastrzemski (23), Dwight Evans (19) and Jim Rice (16).
