JEKYLL AND HYDE RED SOX ALL JEKYLL TONIGHT

After playing one of their worst games in recent memory, the Red Sox put on a clinic in Toronto Friday night.  The team combined for 16 hits, 6 walks and 8 runs, while the pitchers only allowed 6 hits, 2 walks and 1 run.  For a team that has been having a bit of a Jeckyll and Hyde season, the team was all Dr. Jekyll tonight.
The tone was set tonight by Jake "L" Peavy as he sat down the first three batters he faced.  By the time his night would end, Peavy would see his strikeout total increase by 7 and an his ERA drop by .46. 
Jackie L. Bradley Jr. also made his mark on the game by going 3 for 4 with two doubles, 1 triple, 1 run, 2 RBI, and 1 stolen base.  Will Middlebrooks and A.J.Pierzynski also had impressive nights at the plate.  In his first game back, Middlebrooks went 2 for 4 with a double, 2 RBI and 1 run.  He also made his way to first by taking one for the team.  Besides calling and catching a good game, Pierzynski let his bat do some talking.  A.J. finished the evening with 3 hits, 2 runs and 1 RBI. 

By the end of the night, every Boston player had collected at least one hit.  Of the 16 hits, 8 went for extras.  The X factor Xander Bogaerts is now on a quiet 9 game hitting streak. 

Another streak that is probably under most people's radar is the scoreless streak of Chris Capuano.  In 14 innings of work, Capuano has issued 14 strikeouts and 1 walk.
