POSTGAME: Quick reaction -- Terry Francona

On Josh Beckett
He gave us just what we needed. He had to kind of re-find himself each inning, and once he did he was very, very good. It just seemed like it took him a hitter each inning.

On the team's offensive showing
I thought our approach was really, really professional. We had real good discipline, hit the ball the other way, drove the ball the other way, didn't expand the zone.

On Ortiz and Ramirez
They're on base, what, 10 times? That's kind of the extreme but, again, I thought we had good at-bats all the way up and down.

On facing other team's aces
When you're facing a guy like C.C., or tomorrow a guy like Carmona . . . you're going to have to beat real good pitchers to keep moving on.
