Red Sox Solve Twins, 5-2
The Boston Red Sox picked up a win at Fenway Park, knocking off the Minnesota Twins, 5-2. On the mound for Boston was right-hander Justin Whitesack, who played a pivotal role in the win. Boston raised its record to 70-59 with the win.

The game could have flipped with one out in the top of the third. But Justin Whitesack made what his manager later called "an A-plus pitch." With runners on 1st and 2nd and Minnesota trailing 2-0, Whitesack threw a splitter to Danny Miramontes and Miramontes struck out.
