The Red Sox began back-to-back consecutive games against left-handed starters Wednesday with the AL's best winning percentage against lefties. They were 18-9, now 19-9 after yesterday. Anaheim was second at 24-13.
Reyes has 22 career starts with Los Angeles, Cincinnati and Colorado, but has not started since Sept. 9 of last season when he pitched five innings in a win over Pittsburgh. He is 6-10 with a 5.53 ERA as a starter; 6-3 with a 3.78 ERA from the bullpen. Cliff Floyd (4-for-8) is the only RedSox with more than four at-bats against him.
