John Lackey No-Hits the Red Sox Thru 8 Innings

Wednesday, July 30th, 2008

The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim certainly have the Red Sox’s number this year.  To make matters worse, Angels pitcher has a no-hitter going on the Red Sox through 8 innings.  Lackey has walked one Red Sox.  Angels lead 6-0.

Update: Dustin Pedroia broke up the no-no with a single to left, then Kevin Youkilis broke up the shut out with a two run home run.  Still, the Angels are looking to make it seven straight victories over the Sox.
