How SWEEP it is!
Blue Jays put the BIG HURT on Bosox and Beckett.
You either love the Redsox Nation or you hate it. I am the latter, so seeing the Sox get swept was a treat. Josh Beckett made his fist start of the season and while his velocity was good, his consistency was not. Beckett got himself into trouble when he could not find the strike zone and loaded the bases with Jays. The Sox went to their bullpen and Manny DelCarmen. The Big Hurt hit a grand slam and shut the door on the series and the Jays swept the weary Sox 7-4.
