The number of the day is:

7, as in down 7 runs in the bottom of the seventh. 7-0 was the score when the Red Sox caught fire, in what would become one of the more miraculous come backs in recent history. The runs came in bunches and started with a single to right by Dustin Pedroia that scored Jed Lowrie and moved Coco to third. David Ortiz knocked the two to them in along with himself on a home run to deep right field. After the 7th, the score was a much more manageable 7-4. In the eighth the scoing continued, J.D. Drew knocked himself and Jason Bay in with a home run to deep right. Coco added another by singling to right to score Mark Kotsay. Then in the ninth, Kevin Youkilis grounded to Evan Longoria with two outs, and wound up at second when the throw bounced in front of first baseman Carlos Pena. Jason Bay was intentionally walked and Drew lined a single to right off J.P. Howell over the outstretched glove of Gabe Gross to score the game-winner. Tampa Bay still has the advantage with a 3-2 lead, with the last two games to be played at Tropicana.
