AL: LA ANGELS (0-1) at BOSTON (1-0) <h3>Red Sox look to go up 2-0 in ALDS</h3> <div class="pre">LA Angels at Boston 8:37 pm EDT</div><div class="pre">American League Division Series Red Sox lead, 1-0</div> BOSTON (Ticker) -- Daisuke Matsuzaka has the toughest test thispostseason, following Josh Beckett in the Boston Red Sox'srotation. Matsuzaka will look to match his teammate's Game One shutoutwhen the Red Sox host the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim in GameTwo of the American League Division Series on Friday. Beckett got Boston off on the right foot on Wednesday, tossing afour-hit shutout with eight strikeouts and no walks to give histeam a 1-0 advantage in the best-of-five series. In doing so, Beckett became just the second pitcher inpostseason history to not issue a walk or allow an extra-basehit during a postseason shutout, after Don Larsen's perfect gamefor the New York Yankees in the 1956 World Series. "He was strike-one all night and didn't give us a chance to puthim in a situation where he had to worry about baserunners so hetook care of business pretty well," Angels outfielder GarretAnderson said. Boston, which swept Anaheim in the 2004 ALDS, got homers fromDavid Ortiz and Kevin Youkilis in the opener. Matsuzaka was the surprise announcement as Game Two starterearlier in the week, getting the nod over veteran CurtSchilling. The Japanese righthander, who went 15-12 with a 4.40ERA in his first season in the majors, has yet to face theAngels in his major league career. He ended the regular season on a high note September 28,allowing two runs and six hits over eight innings to earn a winagainst the Minnesota Twins. "I think Daisuke's considered a rookie by major leaguestandards, and he's definitely had a lot thrown at him for thefirst time, but he's not a rookie," Boston manager TerryFrancona said. "He's a pretty established professional pitcher. He's just hada lot thrown at him this year that is - I mean, it is the way itis, and we're thrilled to have him, but we knew he was going togo through a lot of firsts. I mean, culturally, baseball,everything. And he's handled it very well. The Angels will counter with Kelvim Escobar, who post a careerhigh in wins in going 18-7 with 3.40 ERA during the season. Theveteran righthander also missed out on the 10 meetings with theRed Sox this season, but has faced them 36 times - 11 starts -in his career, going 6-7 with a 4.64 ERA. The Venezuelan had a rough start to September, pitching to a10.19 ERA and allowing a .367 batting average over his firstfour starts in the month before recovering to earn a win onSeptember 29, yielding one run in six innings against Oakland. "He has terrific stuff," Anaheim manager Mike Scioscia said ofhis pitcher. "He's pitched in games that if you look back onthem were maybe swing games. Gave us some momentum, importantgames during the season and pitched incredible baseball. "So hopefully Kelvim will be able to establish the strike zoneearly. He has five pitches that he can throw over the plate atany count. And I think that's what makes him so tough. So Idon't think there's any magic spell or formula he needs to takeinto the game. He needs to get into the zone early and put guysaway and his stuff will speak for itself." Game Three will be in Anaheim on Sunday.
