Beckett gives up the lead
TORONTO - Couple of bombs hit against Josh Beckett here in the fourth. Vernon Wells' two-run homer on a curveball was really struck to left-center. Beckett had walked Alex Rios to lead off the inning. Frank Thomas got a Beckett fastball in his wheelhouse and sent it to the wall in left where Manny Ramirez made the grab on a well-timed leap against the fence. Wells now has five ...

Beckett Back to Attack the Jays
The Sox have been getting knocked around up in Toronto the past couple of days, and they're hoping to get back on track tomorrow and salvage one game of the set.
