Other stuff: Beltre is in a 3-for-22 slump. ... Sox are 13-15 in one-run games. ... Kevin Cash is 2 for 14 since joining the Sox. ... The Sox are 6-8 in their last 14 games. ... Daniel Nava has reached base safely in 19 of the 21 games he has played.

On the iPod right now: C'mon Marianne by Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons. I saw Jersey Boys on Broadway (which is terrific, by the way) and downloaded a bunch of Frankie Valli the next day.

Back with more later on.
