A. Johnny Damon is on a 21 game hit streak right now and his average has lowered from where he had started. The 21 games is both lucky and impressive, and the average lowering just shows how good he has been.

B. Tim Wakefield is now in 4th place all time in wins as a Red Sox (122nd) and one away from tying for 3rd with Mel Parnell (tied for 4th with Tiant).

C. Ramirez and Ortiz are the first teammates in history to both reach 70 RBI prior to the ASG in consecutive seasons. Little meaning, but a fun stat.

D. Foulke is getting an MRI on his knees today.
