Diaz Stars as Red Sox Top Athletics, 8-3
Boston left fielder Danny Diaz made his presence felt in the 8-3 Red Sox triumph over the Oakland Athletics. Diaz was 3 for 4 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks, while scoring 2 and driving in 2. Steve Karsay earned the win for Boston. He lasted 8 innings, allowing 2 runs on 6 hits, while striking out 4. With the win, he raised his record to 7-1. At 30-10, the Red Sox are currently first in the AL East Division.

Boston used a well-timed hit by Terrence Long to capture the win. The right fielder socked a bases-clearing double in the top of the third inning to put the Red Sox ahead, 5-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"No disrespect to the other team," said Boston manager Andrew P. "But it's nice to get an easy win."
