Red Sox Rally For 7-4 Win Over Tribe

Boston Red Sox's David Ortiz, center, and Dustin Pedroia, right, are greeted at the dugout after they both scored on a single by Daniel Nava during the eighth inning of their 7-4 win over the Cleveland Indians in a baseball game at Fenway Park in Boston, Saturday, May 25, 2013
The Red Sox rallied to beat the Indians 7-4. Coming into the 8th inning of this game it was 4-3 Indians, but the Red Sox would score 4 runs off of Ciraco's, Carp's, and Pedroia's wall ball doubles, oh and a misplayed popup to make it 7-4, and then Bailey came into the 9th to seal the deal, and earn his first save since coming off the DL. Pedroia went 2-4 with an RBI, Nava went 1-3 with an RBI, Iglesias went 3-4 with a double, and Ciriaco went 3-4 with a double and an RBI. Lester did OK, earning a quality start giving up 10 hits, 4 runs, 1 walk, but striking out 8, and got the no decision.

The unexpected helped the Sox win this one, referring to Iglesias and Ciraco, and they have now took 2 out of 4 games in the series so far. The Red Sox are now 30-20 on the year, and in second place 0.5 games back of the Yankees, as of now, because it could change soon. Tomorrow Doubrant will be on the mound to close out the series, hopefully he does good and continues to improve.
