The Tampa Bay Giants went down to defeat to Clay Buchholz and his Boston teammates. The final score was 3-1 in favor of the Red Sox. Craig Breslow converted his 17th save in 20 tries. The Giants, now 27-39, have lost 4 in a row.

Danny Hernandez drove in one run for Boston. The 24-year old right fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the sixth. With one out and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he broke a 1-1 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Matt Chico. It was his 11th RBI of the season.

"Can't say enough about our pitching," said Hernandez.
