The Red Sox beat the Astros, yes again, 7-3 Friday night. The Sox had 17 hits last night, and everyone was just doing great. Pedroia picked up 3 hits and went 3 for 5. Ross picked up 4 hits, and went 4 for 4, with 2 home runs. Ortiz also had a home run, second straight game with a home run. Also, we can't forget about Middlebrooks who hit his 6th home run of the season last night, going back to back with Ross. Anyways, Dempster did pretty good, giving up only 4 hits, 2 earned runs, 3 walks, and getting 10 strikeouts in 6 innings pitched. He also picked up his first win of the season last night. The bullpen also did good last night with Mortenson, Tazawa, Uehara, and Wilson relieving the game. Wilson came into the 9th to finish the game up, and he did good getting 3 quick outs and 1 strikeout, and still has an ERA of 0.
So the bats helped the Sox win this game last night. This was Ross's first career 4 hit game in his 12 year career, who is 36. With this win, the Sox, will face the Astros for the 3rd game in a 4 game series. Doubrant is scheduled to pitch in this one.
