Another day, another pitcher’s duel at the Jake last night. This time it was the Indians who got the better of the Red Sox as Fausto Carmona outdueled his counterpart, Josh Beckett, on a night full of strikeouts rather than hits. Carmona’s changeup was downright nasty and Beckett, well he made one mistake. That one mistake was the difference in the game. Let’s take a look at the headlines from last night’s game and other happenings appearing in the Boston and Cleveland area papers on this Thursday morning in RSN.
