The Boston Red Sox beat the Tampa Bay Rays, 17-8, at Fenway Park. Patrick Vitzhum, who is tied for 4th in the AL with a .399 on-base percentage, starred for Boston. He was 4-5 with 2 doubles, 2 singles, and a walk, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2. Ed Goodwin earned save number 2 this season. Boston is now 19-21, while Tampa Bay is 18-21.

The game turned with one out in the bottom of the fourth. That's when Vitzhum hit a run-scoring single off Jesús Pacheco. It propelled the Red Sox into the lead, 6-5.

"We got the victory," said Vitzhum. "That's all that matters at the end of the day."
