BOSTON -- For Clay Buchholz, things couldn't be any better right now. He is firing gem after gem and doing it with a catcher in Sandy Leon that he works in perfect harmony with. His body, which has betrayed him in years past, has never felt stronger.
The righty was one strike away from a shutout against the Astros on Saturday, the one run he allowed in a 6-1 victory didn't diminish the performance.
