The Red Sox injected some youth into their lineup, and for at least 1 night it paid off. Lars Anderson, Nava, Yamaico Navarro, Kalish all started and this is something you will be seeing a lot of the rest of the season.
Lester had a very solid night going 6 innings allowing 2 runs on 4 hits with 10 Ks. Kalish hit a grand slam, Ortiz had a two-run shot and the Sox for once put some runs on the board. Lars Anderson was 0-4 with 2 Ks, there was a time when he was a top prospect, but over the past two years you have to wonder what his value is. Anyways, he will be interesting to watch for the rest of the season.
With the win Boston is now 9 games back of the Yankees and 6 1/2 games behind the Rays for the Wild Card.
