In spite of a great day at the plate for National League star Alberto Pujols, the St Louis Cardinals fell once more to the Boston Red Sox by a score of 6-2 at Fenway Park in Boston. Pujols, who batted 3-4, could not carry his team to a win, as Curt Schilling threw six magical innings and kept the powerful National League champions at bay. This was in spite of Schilling’s broken ankle and four errors by Boston, after which the Sox relief squad had to finish the job. Although “Big Papi” David Ortiz and Manny Ramirez did not achieve the power hitting for Boston, their plate appearances did account for two runs when they received bases on balls and were driven in by Jason Varitek’s triple. The series now shifts to Busch Stadium in St Louis where Pedro Martinez will pitch Game 3.
