Red Sox Shut Out Twins, 3-0
Boston starter Jered Weaver put a stranglehold on the Minnesota offense. The right-hander had complete command of his sinker in leading the Red Sox to a 3-0 win. The winning pitcher was Weaver, now 1-0. He tossed 6.1 innings of 2-hit ball, while walking 7 and fanning 7. The Twins fall to 8-16 and continue to sputter in the early going.

The Red Sox got a big at-bat from left fielder Garrett Jones. For the game, Jones was 2-4 with a double. In the bottom of the sixth, with a runner on 3rd, he stroked a run-scoring double. His 1st double of the season gave Boston a 1-0 lead.

"It's nice to come out on top today," said Jones.
