He has got through 7 innings so far. Angels are up 6-0. ---

As a Red Sox fan, I’m really beginning to hate the Angels. We’re 1-6 this year. With that said, I’m always up for a good no-hitter even if it is against Boston. ---

It’s over as Pedroia singled and Youk hit a homer. ---

I’d almost rather he got the no hitter. This way it’s just a regular boring-ass loss. ---

Pedroia the Destroia! Best young player I’ve seen in years and years. ---
