Furbush's Debut

6-6-6 for Porcello. Six runs, earned runs, and hits, in three innings.

On came top pitching prospect Charlie Furbush, summoned from Toledo to lend a hand in straightening out the bullpen mess, to make his major league debut against the hit-happy Red Sox.

The big left-hander from South Portland, Maine pitched five shutout innings, allowing two hits while striking out six.

A fine Show debut -- best in a while by anyone wearing the Olde English "D" -- that removed the bad taste left by a 6-3 loss that dropped the Pretenders back to mediocrity (25-25).
