The Red Sox managed to defeat the Toronto Blue Jays in a three-game series, with Daisuke Matsuzaka winning and Jon Lester notching his eleventh win. The Red Sox broke out of their four-game slide on Friday in a 14-3 drubbing of the Jays. On Saturday, Jon Lackey was hit hard in an 8-5 loss. Yesterday, Jesse Litsch carried a no-hitter through five and two thirds innings. However, with two out, Marco Scutaro doubled, Darnell McDonald homered, and David Ortiz homered. Matsuzaka gave up two runs in the bottom of the seventh, but Daniel Bard was lights-out. Jonathan Papelbon threw the ninth, but after he gave up a two-out single, I expected a walk-off homer by Gregg Zaun. Instead, Zaun popped out to center, and the Red Sox won with three hits and three runs, 3-2.
Trivia
David Ortiz will be taking part in the Home Run Derby, and he has now hit eighteen dingers.
