B-R Blog & Stat of the Day

A couple of quick notes on BOS and LAA as the playoffs kick off tonight:

• Boston might be a little bit different of a team offensively from what you're expecting. Check out the list of teams in 2007 with the most player with at least 25 stolen bases. Boston is among 9 teams with 2 such players (Julio Lugo and Count Chocula...errrr Coco Crisp.) You have to go back a long, long way to find the last time the Red Sox did that.
• John Lackey's numbers against the Red Sox leave something to be desired:

    Split          G   GS  GF  W   L   S   CG SHO   IP     ERA    H    R   ER   HR  BB  IBB  SO  HBP
+-+------------+----+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+------+------+----+----+----+---+----+---+----+---+
   BOS            11  11   0   1   6   0   0   0   60.1   6.27   90   49   42  10   26   3   48   3

And his career numbers at Fenway Park:

    Split          G   GS  GF  W   L   S   CG SHO   IP     ERA    H    R   ER   HR  BB  IBB  SO  HBP
+-+------------+----+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+------+------+----+----+----+---+----+---+----+---+
BOS-Fenway Pk       7   7   0   1   4   0   0   0   35     7.46   59   36   29   7   12   1   27   2

We'll see what it all means in about 7 hours.
