    Red Sox Wakefield tosses 2nd straight CG win; DK hopes he followed my advice

    Tim Wakefield was credited with his second straight complete game Wednesday as the Red Sox beat the Twins 9-1 in seven innings in the first game of a doubleheader.
    The game was called due to rain after the Red Sox scored four times in the seventh. The scheduled night game between the two teams is still on for now, but it's possible it will be postponed and played tomorrow, which had been a scheduled off day. Wakefield, who took a no-hitter into the eighth in his previous start, allowed one run and five hits today. The complete game was his 32nd, breaking a tie with Bartolo Colon and Jamie Moyer and putting him into seventh place on the active list. He was 13th at the end of last year, but Greg Maddux, Curt Schilling, Mike Mussina and Kenny Rogers all retired.

    Twins didn't look too good against him...and Baker showed he was making a push to want to pitch at the home run derby this summer.

    Don't let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.

    He woulda kept going and got it if the game had gone 9 innings so its not that BS, espcially with the doubleheader that was scheduled for today

    I dunno, it counts. It's a good start either way...
