On Wednesay night, the Sox lost to the Rays by the score of 10-3. It just wasn’t the Red Sox night and they will now need to go on a nice winning streak if they want to win the division.

Tim Wakefield gave up three home runs in only 2 1/3 innings. Wakefield was charged with six hits and six runs as the Rays hit him very hard in his two plus innings of action. Wakefield took the loss and fell to 9-11 on the year. Devern Hansack gave up one run in relief while Javier Lopez and David Pauley were both charged with two runs each.

The Sox did get two home runs from big papi David Ortiz. Ortiz connected on a two run shot in the first inning and then a solo home run in the fourth inning. That was all the scoring for the Sox however as they struggled at the plate.

The Red Sox will be off on Thursday and then will begin a series with the Toronto Blue Jays. I look for the Red Sox to sweep the series and hopefully get right back on top of the division.

Besides Ellsbury, Kevin Youkilis also had two RBI in the game.  Dustin Pedroia went 4-5 and had one RBI.  Pedroia doubled in Ellsbury for the game winning hit and run in the eigth inning.

Josh Beckett was scratched from his scheduled start so David Pauley made the emergency start for the Red Sox.  Pauley pitched 4.1 innings and gave up seven hits and five earned runs.    Julian Tavarez, Hideki Okajima, Mike Timlin, and Jonathan Papelbon all seen action out of the bullpen.  Okajima blew the save, Timlin picked up the win, and Papelbon recorded save which was his eigth of the season.
