Sox Win Despite Game Ending In A 3-3 Tie
By Administrator | March 14, 2008
Bartolo Colon continues to make a positive impression in his effort to become Boston’s fifth starter.
The former Cy Young winner popped a couple of good fastballs, on WEEI it was reported that a couple of them hit 93 on the radar gun, in his 26-pitch effort. His pitches reportedly had good movement during his two innings of work.
He got out of a bases-loaded jam in the first that was caused, in part, by SS Alex Cora’s error… Colon then struck out CF B.J. Upton, got DH Jonny Gomes to pop out, and retired 2B John Rodriguez on a ground ball to first base. Colon allowed a solo homer to left fielder Jon Weber (who?) with two outs in the second inning.
Colon said he was pleased with his arm strength: “I’m thrilled. My arm is responding. I didn’t know how hard I was throwing, but it felt great”.
