My Comment: The Boston Red Sox losing streak is over at five and surprisingly they do it on the road! Not having to play the third game against the Yankees and thus being able to arrive in Minnesota earlier than expected, I'm sure helped. And Cody Ross has been doing it since Spring Training - he just needs to learn how to play Fenway Park's Right Field. No matter what I thought of J. D. Drew's bat, he knew how to play that part of the park. Now let's have a five (and more) game winning streak!

BOSTON: Starting Pitcher: Jon Lester; Winning Pitcher: Daniel Bard (1)
MINNESOTA: Starting Pitcher: Jason Marquis; Losing Pitcher: Matt Capps
BOSTON: Save: Alfredo Aceves (3)
BOSTON: Homeruns: Jarrod Saltalamacchia (2), Cody Ross (4,5)
MINNESOTA: Homerun: Danny Valencia

Red Sox: Wins 5, Losses 10, Percentage: .333

Next game: Tuesday 24 April 2012, 5:05 p.m.PT/8:05 p.m.ET, Minnesota Twins, Target Field, Josh Beckett
