Sox leave 'em loaded....and the bases, too

Posted by Gordon Edes, Globe Staff June 11, 2008 09:20 PM

Sorry, couldn't resist that old gag.
Three straight walks by Lance Cormier loaded the bases for the Sox with two outs in the seventh. Kevin Youkilis grounded into a force play at third.
Javier Lopez has entered to pitch the 8th.
6-1, Sox
The scoreboard, meanwhile, just showed David Ortiz being sworn in as an American citizen. Ortiz, say my pressbox colleagues say who spoke with him before the game, oddly showed little interest in discussing the matter, to the point where he wouldn't even confirm it happened.
