2004.08.31
This day in Red Sox history.
* 7-game win streak (longest this year).
* Beat the surging Angles to drop them 2.5 back in the 2004 AL Wild Card race.
* The Rangers lose in the 11th and drop to 3.5 back in the 2004 AL Wild Card race.
* The MFY suffer their worst loss in team history. Our heroes gain a game (to 3.5 back) in the 2004 AL East race.
* Boston has the best record in August, 21-7. (OK, I made that one up... the superlative, not the record).
* Anything else notable?
Schilling ties Mulder for the most wins in baseball with 17.
Steinbrenner shits himself.
