Red Sox Bang Out 11-1 Win Versus Miami
In baseball, each game is unique. This one was no different.

The Boston Red Sox met little resistance from the Miami Marlins, beating them 11-1 at Turner Field. Johnny Rizzo led the way. He was 3 for 3 with 3 singles and 2 walks. He scored 2 times for Boston. Al Shealy was the winning pitcher. Over 5.2 innings, he allowed 1 run on 4 hits, with 3 walks and 2 strikeouts. Dutch Kemner, credited with the save, is now 9 for 10 in save opportunities.

Boston relied on the hitting of Jayson Werth to pick up the win. The center fielder clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the third inning to put the Red Sox on top, 4-0. For the game, Werth had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"Baseball is about momentum," said Rizzo, "and we feel we've got it in our favor after that win."

The Red Sox bumped their record to 55-53 with this latest triumph.
