From the Red Sox official game notes:
-Boston has scored 24 runs on 29 hits in the last 3 games -- despite being one-hit by Felix Hernandez on Wednesday.
-The Red Sox' 3.12 team E.R.A. is second in the American League. It is the team's lowest E.R.A. through nine games since 2001.
-J.D. Drew has hit safely in all nine games, and is one of only seven major leaguers to hit safely in every one his team's games so far. The others: Ray Durham (San Francisco), Delmon Young (Tampa Bay), Alex Rios (Toronto), David Wright (N.Y. Mets), Derrek Lee (Chicago Cubs) and Alex Rodriguez (N.Y. Yankees). The last Red Sox player to hit safely in the first 10 games of a season was Shea Hillenbrand, who is now with the Angels, in 2002. Drew's batting average (.419) is second in the major leagues to Florida's Miguel Cabrera.
-Mike Lowell already has five doubles and four errors.
-Curt Schilling is 25-8 all-time at Fenway Park, the best winning percentage for any pitcher who has pitched at least 300 innings at Fenway over the past 51 years (he edges out Pedro Martinez for the distinction). Schilling's 4-1 lifetime with a 3.44 E.R.A. against the Angels.
-The Red Sox have a three-game winning streak against the Angels.
-Jonathan Papelbon is a perfect 12-for-12 lifetime in save opportunities in April.
-Manny Ramirez is 7-for-14 lifetime with a home run against Angels starter Hector Carrasco. But Ramirez is only hitting .118 over the last five games.
-Gary Matthews Jr. is 4-for-21 lifetime against Schilling.
-Coco Crisp is 0 for his last 8.
-Julio Lugo is hitting .333 over the last seven games.
