Justice! And Cora obviously did a great job in turning that double play in the first place, helping Timlin out of one his customary jams. The game had a lot to love: Coco with two bunt hits and a sac fly RBI, Manny's first homer, and Papelbon blowing guys away. This is a squad to feel good about.</p> I couldn’t watch the game on TV until tonight (the replay), so even though I was following the game on mlb.com it was obviously impossible to appreciate how sweet it is that Cora basically won the game after Overbay leveled him like that.

If he leaves one over the heart of the plate, even at that speed, hitters are going to crush it.

Still, it’s encouraging after his shoulder troubles, which usually lead to diminished velocity (ask Jason Schmidt.)
