Sweep, perchance to dweam

Sox got their first sweep since May 9-11, against Oakland (also at home, of course). The Reds, who are second in the National League in runs scored, managed only four runs the entire series, which says pretty much all you need to know about the Sox starting pitching. That's four amazing starts in a row, with plenty of run support to go around. During this 4-game streak, Sox outscored their opponents 31-5. The bullpen only had to pitch 7 innings, but they gave up just 3 hits, 3 walks, and zero runs. Next up, the Pirates, who sport some pretty nifty defense, and who will be starting Josh Fogg against Wade Miller. Game begins in less than 32 hours.
