The Red Sox season has been a mess for the most part, but they finally did make it over .500, hopefully for good. It did take six tries, losing at 0-0, 10-10, 11-11, 21-21, 22-22, 23-23, before finally beating Verlander at 24-24. Of course, they managed to beat the reigning Cy Young award winner and MVP. Granted, it did take two tries, as Verlander pitched 8 shutout innings against the Sox on opening day, before Valverde blew the save.
