Friday baseball

What you missed, in a nutshell:

- You better not have gone to bed before the 8th inning... Yankees def. Red Sox 8-7.

- Philadelphia edges New York in extras. Phillies def. Mets 3-2.

- The Nationals coughed it up late and ended up losing in extras. Just another day in the life. Braves def. Nationals 8-5.

- Maybe Trembley should just stay suspended? Orioles def. Blue Jays 6-2.

Other results of note: Indians def. Royals (5-4), Reds def. Brewers (6-5), Cubs def. Cardinals (5-3), Tigers def. Twins (4-2), White Sox def. Angels (5-3), Marlins def. Rockies (7-6), Mariners def. Devil Rays (2-1).

The Padres are attempting to come back against the Giants right now in the bottom of the 9th. It's currently 4-3. And the Dodgers have come back to take the lead against the Diamondbacks in the top of the 6th, 6-4.

Tomorrow's games, the abbreviated version:

RHP Chien-Ming Wang (18-6, 3.69 ERA) and the Yankees take on RHP Josh Beckett (18-6, 3.27 ERA) and the Red Sox.

RHP Pedro Martinez (2-0, 1.80 ERA) and the Mets host RHP Kyle Lohse (8-12, 4.47 ERA) and the Phillies.

RHP Brett Tomko (2-11, 5.70 ERA) and the Padres host RHP Matt Cain (7-14, 3.78 ERA) and the Giants.

LHP Kurt Birkins (1-1, 7.27 ERA) and the Orioles take on RHP Roy Halladay (14-7, 3.91) and the Blue Jays.

Other games of note:
Cubs @ Cardinals (Lilly vs. Looper) [Game 1]
Cubs @ Cardinals (Marshall vs. Pineiro) [Game 2]
Diamondbacks @ Dodgers (Hernandez vs. Lowe)
Angels @ White Sox (Weaver vs. Garland)
Reds @ Brewers (Saarloos vs. Suppan)
Royals @ Indians (Greinke vs. Carmona)
Tigers @ Twins (Bazardo vs. Santana)
Marlins @ Rockies (Mitre vs. Jimenez)
Devil Rays @ Mariners (Kazmir vs. Ramirez)

Multiple Cy Young candidates going tomorrow. Fausto Carmona for the Indians, Johan Santana for the Twins...

But the obvious marquee match-up is fellow 18-game winners Chien-Ming Wang vs. Josh Beckett. Should be a great game, especially after the wild one Friday night between New York and Boston.
