August 26: Red Sox 3, White Sox 2

Three games, three different ways to lose.
This was a tidy, well-played, well-pitched game on both sides. Neither team committed an error. Tim Wakefield didn’t miss with his knuckler, and Gavin Floyd gave up two solo shots but limited the damage otherwise.
Scott Podsednik even came through with a pinch-hit homer to tie it in the eighth, the first Sox batter to come to the plate after Wakefield departed.
But, in the end … Tony Pena. David Ortz. Ballgame.
Record: 73-53 | Box score | Play-by-play
