The Boston Red Sox might have woken up and it wasn't by choice as the Tampa Bay Rays might have done it in the last series as that Fake "Donnybrook" that broke out on "Get Away Day". Nonetheless the Carmines have taken the first two games from the NL East leading Braves in the three-piece in all of a sudden COOL-anta!

The Winner tonight was Sox Ace Jon Lester who went six innings and allowed three runs on eight hits. He fortunately for him was pulled at the beginning of the 7th right after the Sox broke up a 3-2 Braves lead to put up a 6-3 "W". "Big Papi" Ortiz and Jackie Bradley Jr. had the big run-scoring singles in the 7th with Grady Sizemore with an RBI on a fielders choice. Lester was on the hook for the Loss that turned into a ""W for him as he moves to 5-6.

As for the Chop Shop 404 they scored on a Jason Heyward Solo Shot in the 1st and two Sac-Flies by Hot Corner Chris Johnson. Braves Starter Aaron Harang was on the hook for the "W" until the disaster 7th innings for the Braves Pen. Harang left going six giving up just two runs on seven hits striking seven with a free pass!

The Carmine still in the AL East Basement at 22-29 as that 10-game skid did them no justice as its just May Hardball. Then Braves lead in the NL East is at 1/5 games over the Nats as they fall to 28-23 and the Starting Pitching or lack thereof is starting to take its toll on Braves Country.
