Chicago (N) Sent Home with 5-2 Loss
The Boston Red Sox knocked off the Chicago (N) Cubs, 5-2, in American League action at Fenway Park. Boston pitcher and Sebring, Florida, native Tom Gordon had an outstanding performance. The setback makes Chicago (N) 95-60.

Boston took a 3-2 lead on Skip Schumaker's 18th double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Schumaker hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Chicago (N) pitcher Tim Dillard visibly frustrated.

Boston manager Doug Morton praised his team's "energy."
