Boston Red Sox Celebrate their win over the Los Angeles Angels.
The Red Sox where hot and ready for their first game of the series held at Fenway Park and nothing was going to stand in their way. Things did not look to good for the Angels as Josh Beckett was on fire and nothing the Los Angeles Angels did had any effect on the outcome of the game. The Boston Red Sox took it to the Angels and beat them 4-0 in this best of five American League Division Series.
Josh Beckett was definitely the star of this game as he brought a whole other level to the game. Beckett, who had been playing well all season long, proved that the Red Sox would be a team to be reckoned with. It was a pressure filled game yet Josh did not even flinch as he and his team mates like Kevin Youkilis who made a solo home run and David Ortiz who made a two run shot created an opportunity for the Red Sox to beat the Angels 4-0.
The ace right hander pitched a complete game shutout which made one of the best games a Boston Pitcher has had during this month and was the first for the team as well since the 1975 World Series when Luis Tiant did the same to the Cincinnati Reds in the first game.
