I'm sick... the Sox are not

I've been ill this week, but fortunately the bug hasn't touched the Red Sox as they've managed to handle Minnesota for 2 out of 3 in a series of pitchers duels in the Metrodome and sweeping the slumping Blue Jays in the other dome (Rogers Center) in Toronto by a combined score of 26-5 in the three game series - including an 8-0 shutout of Toronto tonight when they had their Cy Young winner Roy Halladay on the mound.

I won't add much to this, but you can check out the wrapups in the series links to the lower right if you like... perhaps some more enlightened coverage in the days and weeks to come for all of my (two) devoted readers.

If there is ONE must see highlight though it would have to be Doug Mirabelli picking Troy Glaus off first base for a very unconventional double play to end the bottom of the 1st inning when Toronto had the based loaded with only one out and slugger Frank Thomas at the plate. His snap throw nails Glaus about 2 feet from the bag - niiice. Check out the highlight video on the Red Sox homepage!!

P.S. The yanks got spanked today 14-2 including a pinch grand salami by Diaz Texas Ranger in a 10-run 7th inning. Salami! Yummy!
