Lester's "unacceptable" outing: 4.1-11-6-0-6, 102.

Cody Ross went 4-for-5, with two doubles, a home run, and 3 RBI.

For the Red Sox, David Ortiz and Stephen Drew hit homers. Drew drove in three runs.

The Rays lost to San Francisco 4-1, so Boston's one-game lead remained intact. ... The Yankees lost 7-2 to the Padres.

Wouldn't that be Christmas in August!

Funny that anyone would want to own a newspaper these days. I assume Henry doesn't want to flush his money away, so I wonder what I'm not seeing.
