| The Sox put the whippin' on the Rays, slamming 5 homeruns off Rays starter J. P. Howell. Two for David Ortiz, and one each for Varitek, Manny and Eric Hinske. The Sox also rip 5 doubles, for 10 of their 16 hits for extra bases. Everybody except JD Drew helped out of offense today, capped by Papi's 3 for 4, 6 RBI day. Josh Beckett whiffs 13 for his team leading 8th win of the year, as the Sox score in 7 of the 8 innings that they batted in. Overall, a thrashing! |

Designated hitter David Ortiz ripped 2 homeruns and had 6 RBI and Josh Beckett
struck out 13 batters as the Boston Red Sox defeated the Tampa Bay Devil Rays
by a score of 12 to 5 at Fenway Park.
Ortiz punished Tampa Bay with his bat. He belted a three-run homer in the 1st
inning, ripped a solo home run (his 20th of the season) in the 3rd inning and
doubled resulting in a run in the 7th inning. The Boston offense poured it
on, scoring in 7 of the 9 innings.
The victory was credited to Beckett(8-4) who went 7 innings, allowing 5 runs.
J.P. Howell(2-4) took the loss. He gave up 9 runs in 5 innings and saw his
ERA jump from 5.23 to 6.75.
When asked about his strikeout total for the game, Beckett 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'.'
