this game looks like its more important for the Red Sox to win without going deep into their bullpen. their best set up man right now, Houk, pitched 4 or 5 innings in the second game and probably won't be ready to pitch again until game 5. i don't know why they make such a big deal of pitch counts, but they do!
now if the series goes to game 5 and if it was up to me, I would start Houk instead of Chris Sales. but i am not the one calling the shots!
