So since I added UPN 38 to the cable TV line-up all I have seen is the Sox lose, including last night as reported in The New York Times when Wells lost...though he wasn't really the problem:
It's doubtful that the portly wonder that is Wells fits into most things as well as he has the Red Sox clubhouse. In a room where Manny Ramirez playfully roams in an Allen Iverson T-shirt, where Kevin Millar and David Ortiz insult each other profanely, where Johnny Damon strolls in pretty much when he feels the urge, Wells, as Damon put it, "wants to be the life of the party." That wasn't the case last night, when Wells was outpitched by Aaron Small, the nobody who never loses, who is 7-0 after being fished from the minor leagues. The Yankees took the opener of a three-game series, 8-4, to cut the Red Sox' division lead to three games. Today, in another matchup that months ago would have been unimaginable, Shawn Chacon will face Curt Schilling as the Yankees continue a chase that could well continue until the last series of the regular season, which just happens to be at Fenway Park.And, see, Curt is not making me comfortable like he should. And over the last two games I have also seen three innings where the bases were loaded with one out each time and only one run total gets scored. And the cut off man throws the ball as hard as he can straight into the ground ten feet in front of him like a five year old. And the second base man misses a twenty-foot throw to first for an out by about forty feet.
It's like be a Red Sox fan again all of a sudden.

Yes, Sunday's was a good game. I listened on the radio on the porch from the Watertown sports station 1410 AM and kept notes as I went along like a crazy guy in a nursing home.
