With this win over the Oakland Athletics, which has evened the three-game series, the Boston Red Sox have become the first team in the American League to record fifty victories. Beckett had a decent outing in winning his tenth game of the season and the Boston bats returned tonight in Fenway Park. The final game of the three-game set tomorrow will be for the series win. Let's hope the mantra - "series win, best (AL) record, leading East" - will be recited on Wednesday!
