6-2 Triumph Takes Boston to 21-4
Rafael Furcal had a hand in Boston defeating Texas by the score of 6-2. Furcal went 4 for 5 at the plate, scoring 2 times and driving in 2 runs. The Red Sox, now 21-4, have been on fire in the early going.

There was more than one reason the Red Sox beat the Rangers, but Furcal's big at-bat in the top of the second was an important factor. He staked his team to a 2-0 lead when he hit a 2-run single.

"If you pitch well, you give yourself some opportunities," said Boston manager Andrew P.
