Red Sox Victorious at Tampa Bay, 10-7
The Boston Red Sox stopped the Tampa Bay Rays, 10-7, at Tropicana Field. The Red Sox got a big game from Brad Ruffin, who was 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Marcelo Aldocer picked up the win in relief. His record improves to 5-3. Stephen Jensen suffered the loss. Mal Cornely collected his 38th save.

Boston used a timely hit from Visa Latti to get the win. The catcher stroked a 2-run double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Red Sox ahead, 8-6. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"I still think this team can play even better," Ruffin told the Boston Bulletin.

The win elevated the Red Sox to 76-57.
