| A potential pitchers duel between Josh Beckett and Roy Halladay ends up decidedly one-sided, with the Red Sox eventually winning it by the score of 14-0. The Red Sox drew first blood in the 2nd when Mike Lowell doubled and then scored on a Kevin Youkilis single, but the real killer was the 3rd when the Red Sox scored 7 runs. The big blow was a Jason Varitek grand slam home run which chased Halladay from the game. Halladay's line: 2 1/3, 7 H, 7 R, 1 BB, 2 K. The Red Sox would greet Brandon League right after Tek's shot with back to back doubles from Coco Crisp and Jacoby Ellsbury, which would add another run to the Sox tally. Ellsbury would add 2 more in the 5th with his first major league home run, while Crisp would score 3 runs in a 4 for 4 day. Not to be outdone, Big Papi hit his 31st homer in the 7th inning, resulting in the Sox' 12th, 13th and 14th runs of the game. Beckett ends up going 7 innings before giving way to Kyle Snyder, who upholds the shutout. |

What an evening for the Boston Red Sox! They shellacked the Toronto Blue Jays
pitching for 14 runs while Josh Beckett(22-1), with relief help from Kyle
Snyder, throttled Toronto.
Boston went ahead for good in the 2nd inning scoring one runner using 3 hits.
That was all the offense they were to need. Boston had 19 hits for the game
and Toronto had 6.
Roy Halladay(15-9) was the loser. He was not very effective, surrendering 7
runs in 2 and 1/3 innings. Boston continued their winnings ways improving
their record to a division leading 105-34. They are 8-2 in their last ten
games. Toronto has a record of 68-70 after the loss.
