Boston Wins, 11-5
The Boston Red Sox powered past the Texas Rangers, 11-5, at Rangers Ballpark In Arlington. Rajai Davis was 2 for 4 with a home run and a triple, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once, to lead the charge. Mike Gosling earned the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The left-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 2 innings. His record is now 4-0. The Rangers are now 8-13.

Boston used the timely hitting of Ulrich Snijders to capture the win. The catcher socked a grand slam home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Red Sox ahead, 8-5. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a big one.

"It doesn't matter if you're 10 games over .500 or 10 games under, it feels good to win," Davis told the Boston Herald.
