| A big day for Manny Ramirez (double, homer, 5 RBI) is wasted when the tandem of David Aardsma and Mike Timlin suck the joint out by giving 5 runs to the Angels without either one retiring a batter in the 7th inning to turn a 7-4 Sox lead into a 9-7 defecit. A run in the 8th is all the Sox can muster against Francisco Rodriguez, who gets his 23rd save. Not quite the pace of his real-life 62 save season though. |

Howie Kendrick lofted one into the 'cheap seats' and had 2 RBI as the Los
Angeles(AL) Angels defeated the Boston Red Sox by a score of 9 to 8 at Angels
Stadium.
Darren O'Day(3-3) was called upon to do the job and he was the winning
pitcher. He went 2/3 of an inning allowing 1 hit and no walks. It was
roller coaster of a game as the lead change hands 6 times.
Francisco Rodriguez recorded the save, his 23rd. Mike Timlin(3-2) was charged
with the loss in relief. He gave up 2 runs and 3 hits without retiring a
batter.
