| Jon Lester goes 6 strong innings in his first game back after a long recovery from an offseason battle with lymphoma. Lester should have walked away with a win, but Mike Timlin plays win burglar by giving up the lead by allowing a Kelly Shoppach home run but then being the pitcher of record when JD Drew hits a 3 run homer in the next inning. Okajima and Papelbon nail down the win, with Paps earning his 30th save. |
