| Daisuke Matsuzaka gets his 15th win of the season while throwing a complete game shutout in his last start of the year. Dice-K allowed 6 hits while walking 3 and striking out 8. He was helped by the Sox defense, who turned 3 double plays behind him to erase runners. The shutout is his 5th of the year, which leads all of MLB. David Ortiz, Mike Lowell and JD Drew all went 2 for 4 in the win, and Jacoby Ellsbury went deep for his 5th homer of the year. While the Twins were losing 4-0, the Indians were winning 4-0 over the Royals. That puts the Indians just one game back in the AL Central race. |
