Dice K is Dealing

Daisuke Matsuzaka is baffling the Tampa Bay Devil Rays at Fenway tonight. Through eight innings, the Dice Man has allowed four hits and no runs. It took the Rays until the eighth inning to push a base runner to third.
Terry Francona could send Matsuzaka back out for the 9th but Jonathan Papelbon hasn't pitched since June 29th and he's warming up in the pen.
Matsuzaka has pitched superbly for awhile now. In his three previous starts, he owned a 2-0 record with only two runs over 21 innings. Counting tonight, he's struck out eight or more hitters in each of his last six starts.

Dice-K went threw some growing pains at first early this season, but for the last 6 starts he has become a dominant force on that mound. Our pitching staff looks good for at least the next five years or so.,,,,,,,,,,,,,GO SOX!!!!!!!!
