GAME 4: “Hurricane Andrew”

GAME 4
Pomeranz vs Dickey
Red Sox 11, Blue Jays 4

With a poor 5 runs in 5+ innings performance in a key playoff game one can say with almost certainty that the R.A. Dickey “Error” in Toronto is over.  The Jays knuckelballer, cruised through 4 innings without allowing a run, but the Sahx got their timing down on his straight floater and 80 mph fastball and the hit just kept on coming.  After scoring 2 in the 5th and 3 in the 6th the 2012 NL Cy Young Award winner was now Syanora.  Boston added 6 more over the final 2 innings to win this on big, 11-1.  Everyone in the Sahx lineup, sans Pedroia, had at least one knock.  Papi had 3 knocks and 2 runs scored.  Andrew Benintendi hit solo blasts in back to back innings (8th and 9th).  Ramirez and Bradley chipped in with a jack each.  Saunders his a meaningless homer in the 9th to break the shutout.  Pomeranz got the win with five shutout innings.

Red Sox lead series 3-1
