The Rockies' Ryan Spilborghs, right, walks away from Red Sox catcher Jason Varitek after being called out on strikes in the fifth inning. Coming off eight days of rest, the wide-eyed Rockies looked awfully rusty while getting blitzed in the opener. They hardly resembled the team that had won 10 straight and 21 of 22 to earn the first pennant in its 15-year history.

The Red Sox's Mike Lowell slides into third, running from first on a single by J.D. Drew in the fourth inning. Lowell scored later on a sacrifice fly by Jason Varitek. Lowell hit a tie-breaking double in the fifth that put Boston ahead 2-1.
