Do the Red Sox read Sox Blog? I never would have dreamed they do, but apparently that's the case. Every suggestion and request I made in yesterday evening's post was answered in the affirmative last night.

Trot Nixon dropped his appeal and sat for the first of two games against a lefty hurlers.

Pitching? Spot-starter John Halama had a serviceable outing, giving us five innings with two earned runs on four hits. And the bullpen held down the fort, with Matt Mantei turning in a hitless inning, Mike Timlin going two with just a hit, and Keith Foulke closing it out. (But not before -- again! -- surrendering a home run. This one was about as fluky as they get, however, a chest-high fastball that Marcus Thames just crushed. Bad luck? Let's hope.)

And they even hit with runners in scoring position. Dougie "Stud Who Hits Bombs" Mirabelli, doing his duty as designated hitter, took care of all that with one lethal swing, delivering a sublime grand slam in the fifth.

Meanwhile, in Gotham, Pedro Martinez and Doug Mientkiewicz got their rings.

Speaking of New York: Sox Blog seldom indulges in schadenfreude, but the mess the Yankees are in is just too comical to ignore. The only thing that would make it all more enjoyable would be if our team could somehow climb out of third place while they stayed mired in fourth.

So, since it's now apparent that the Sox cater to my wishes, I hereby command them to go on a 10-game win streak. Step to it.
