. He just wont have a perfect record when he gets there. Buchholz lost for the
first time this season, and the AL East champion Boston Red Sox rested a couple
of regulars while falling to Mark Buehrle and the Toronto Blue Jays, 4-2, on
Saturday night. Having missed more than three months with a strained neck,
Buchholz feels like his strength is where it was before the injury. He just
needs to fine tune a few things. "I feel good. Movement on all the pitches is
there," he said. "Its just the command and location and where to start it, which
is sometimes hard to get better. The velocity is there and the body feels good."
Buchholz (11-1) gave up two earned runs on six hits and two walks in six
innings. He had pitched 11 scoreless innings in his previous two starts since
coming off the disabled list. A day after the Red Sox clinched the division
title, they lost for just the sixth time in 21 games. Manager John Farrell didnt
start second baseman Dustin Pedroia and first baseman Mike Napoli, and used
starter Ryan Dempster for an inning of relief. Buchholz was the first Boston
pitcher to start a season 11-0 in his initial 14 starts since Roger Clemens went
13-0 in 1986. "I thought Clay was pretty sharp and pretty crisp for the time he
was out on the mound tonight," Farrell said. "He was fighting to get back out
for the seventh, but seeing the progression hes on, I think was a comfortable
number of pitches for tonight." Buchholz broke into a slight grin when he was
asked about how hard it is to go undefeated for an entire season. "It probably
could have easily have happened sooner than now," he said. "The guys that play
behind me all year have found ways to come back in situations where I came out
of the game behind in the game." Bostons lead over Oakland dropped to 1 1/2
games for the ALs best record and home-field throughout the post-season.
Dempster made his first relief appearance since 2007, working a scoreless
eighth. Boston third baseman Will Middlebrooks shifted to first for the first
time in his career. Jonny Gomes and David Ross each drove in a run for the Red
Sox. Adam Linds RBI double highlighted a three-run fourth that carried the Blue
Jays. Buehrle (12-9) held Boston to one run for the third time in five starts
that hes faced them this year. He allowed five hits, striking out five without
walking a batter. He reached 200 innings for the 13th straight season. "Wish it
was in a better situation," Buehrle said of reaching the mark again. Manager
John Gibbons was impressed by the left-handers season. "Steady Eddy," Gibbons
said. "Doing what he has been doing his whole career. You get 25 Buehrles and
you are probably gonna have a good year." Casey Janssen pitched the ninth for
his 33rd save in 35 chances. Torontos Munenori Kawasaki was ejected by first
base umpire Eric Cooper in the eighth after slamming his helmet when he was
called out on a close play. The Blue Jays scored all three runs with two outs in
the fourth after Brett Lawrie beat out a routine grounder to short for an
infield hit. Lind followed with an RBI double, Rajai Davis added a run-scoring
single and Moises Sierra scored from third on Buchholzs errant pickoff throw to
first. Gomes RBI single cut it to 3-1 in the sixth. Ross run-scoring grounder
sliced it to 3-2 in the seventh after Xander Bogaerts reached second on Lawries
fielding error at third base. J.P. Arencibia snapped an 0-for-27 stretch with an
RBI single off the Green Monster in the Toronto ninth. NOTES: Pedroia had
started 151 of the teams initial 152 games. He pinch-hit in the seventh and
struck out. "The hardest thing is hes not going to know what to do," Farrell
said, joking before the game. "He may end up back on the field because we want
to get him the heck out of the dugout." ... Middlebrooks knew things would be a
different in his debut at first. "Ive never played first in my life," he said,
standing on the field after batting practice. "The hardest thing for me is going
to be how to try and hold the runners on, which way to stand with my footwork."
... Red Sox CF Jacoby Ellsbury, sidelined for his 14th straight game with a
broken small bone in his right foot, ran and hit in the cage. The club is
planning for his return before the end of the regular season. ... Felix Doubront
(10-6, 4.15 ERA) goes for Boston against R.A. Dickey (13-12, 4.21 ERA) in the
series -- and Bostons home-- finale Sunday.
