Is something wrong with Curt Schilling’s health? Only he knows that. His velocity was way down. The one bright spot on Monday night was the hitting by Coco Crisp. Schilling was awful for the second start in a row since the one hitter and the Sox were unable to take advantage of Chuck James’ 4 walks. The Sox are hoping for a better effort from Josh Beckett tonight but before that happens, let’s take a look at what the Boston area and Atlanta media have to say about the game and other baseball related things in today’s papers.
