G9: Red Sox 4, Rangers 2

Rangers - 000 000 110 - 2  5  1
Red Sox - 001 000 03x - 4  4  0

And the Red Sox win two of three during our trip to Boston, thanks to some solid pitching from Peavy (6.2-3-1-4-8, 109) and a big late-inning bomb from David Ortiz.

And one night after hearing some classic Replacements at Fenway, the park's music man (or woman) drops some fuckin Minutemen on the crowd ("Love Dance") during a break in Jonny Gomes's third inning at-bat. Amazing! Who is this mystery Red Sox employee with such fine taste in '80s rock?
