Red Sox Win in Extras
Boston rode a decent outing from starter Clayton Richard to victory over the St. Louis Cardinals at Fenway Park. The final score was 5-4. Their 54-53 record puts the Red Sox second in the American League Down.

The game was at a stalemate until right fielder Jayson Werth came to bat in the bottom of the tenth. Facing St. Louis pitcher Lary Sorensen, he hit a first pitch slider for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Boston on top, 5-4.

"We played hard and won," said Richard. "Sometimes, baseball really is that easy.'
