| Mike Lowell cracks two homeruns, Julio Lugo adds a 2-run shot for his first homerun of the season, and a solid Justin Masterson on the mound give the first game in the Battle Of The Red to the Red Sox as the bulk of the interleague schedule begins. Masterson held the Reds hitless until Joey Votto singled with two outs in the 5th, but Justin couldn't bat as well as he pitched striking out all three times to the plate with one of them on a foul bunt for the third strike. But then, that is to be expected for an AL pitcher in an interleague game who has to bat. Reds pitcher Aaron Harang has one of the more unusual lines in a game as he strikes out 9 in 6 innings but also allows 8 hits, 6 runs and three homers. |
