Game 41- PawSox vs. Bisons, May 14, 2008

The PawSox look to get past last night's collapse in game two of a four game series with the Buffalo Bisons tonight in Buffalo. RHP David Pauley (3-2, 3.56) starts for Pawtucket. RHP Adam Miller (0-0, 2.04) will throw for the Bisons.

As we are wont to do...here is a quick preview...

Pawtucket Red Sox (23-17)

With last night's loss the PawSox fell to third place in the IL North. They are still 5 games out of first and only 1/2 game behind second place Syracuse. They are currently 2-4 against Buffalo this season.

The PawSox are without the services of Jonathan Van Every, promoted to Boston earlier today to fill the roster spot of Clay Buchholz who was placed on the 15-day disabled list with a tear of his fingernail on the middle finger of his pitching hand.

Pauley will make his seventh start of the season tonight. He earned the win his last time out May 8th at home against Durham. He threw six innings, giving up two earned runs on five hits.

Buffalo Bisons (18-21)

This will be Miller's fifth start of the season. He has yet to earn a decision, despite pitching well. In three of his four previous starts Miller did not yield an earned run in 14 combined innings of work. He has struggled only once, giving up four runs May 4th against Charlotte.
