| Jon Lester strikes out 10 over 8 innings and earns his 2nd win of the season in a close one over the Orioles. Will Middlebrooks hit his first career home run in the 1st, and the Sox took advantage of some sloppy play in the 6th to add the tying and go-ahead run. The Orioles committed 2 passed balls and 2 errors in the inning. |

Jon Lester mowed down 10 Baltimore batters at Fenway Park where the Boston Red
Sox beat the Baltimore Orioles 3 to 2.
Lester(2-1) looked very much in control throughout the night. He didn't give
up much, just 4 hits and 1 walk in 8 innings. Boston had 7 hits for the game
and Baltimore had 4.
Lester got help from Alfredo Aceves who was credited with his 2nd save. Matt
Lindstrom(0-1) was the loser in relief. When asked about his strikeout total
for the game, Lester offered, 'The fan's really got into it. It is fun to
see them tally up the strikeout totals up there in the stands. Fortunately,
I kept them busy tonight - of course, it would be all for naught without the
'W'.'
