Devil Rays Turn Back Red Sox, 7-5
Ian Kinsler was instrumental in his team's 7-5 triumph over the Boston Red Sox. The second baseman was 2 for 4 with 2 doubles, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once for the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. Brett Myers claimed the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 3 innings. His record stands at 4-4. This win makes it 8 in a row for Tampa Bay.

With the game tied in the top of the fifth inning, Kinsler had a clutch at-bat. That's when he hit a sacrifice fly to give the Devil Rays a 6-5 lead.

"This team is hotter than heck," said Tampa Bay manager Brenton S.
