Pretty good Sox Machine piece on Sosa this season. Lots of comments from Getz, and Sosa himself.

Jose Rodriguez is now 2 for 2, but is inexplicably thrown out at first when the ball is returned to the IF after straying too far off first base.
Sosa 1 - 2.
Burke looks good. Weak contact and and strikeouts.
That fact that he's projectable and should add velocity to the fastball as he fills out is super tantilizing. While it's not a bad pitch, he's not blowing people away with the fastball as it stands. It's mainly the secondaries and the pitch mix.
He's definitely throwing the changeup a lot more today. Probably working on it? Past outings he was getting away with just overwhelming everyone with the breaking pitch.
7 SO through 5.0 IP. 62 pitches thrown.
