Moss goes deep, crowd goes wild

Posted by Amalie Benjamin, Globe Staff March 25, 2008 08:54 AM

Once again, so much for J.D. Drew.

Brandon Moss just took Oakland closer Huston Street deep to right field, bringing the Sox back into a tie with the A's in the top of the ninth inning. With one out in the inning (Mike Lowell, fly ball, center field), Moss slammed a 2-2 pitch just over the wall in right.

The entire place erupted in applause and "Let's go Red Sox" cheers.

And it was Moss's first major league home run. Not a bad day, huh?

  1. Ellsbury replaces Crisp in the playoffs
    Moss replaces Drew in Japan
    I'm hoping Lowrie will get a chance to replace Lugo before too long

  1. Known Brandon Moss from his days at Loganville (GA) HS. Great player, even better person. Good for him and the SOX.
