Red Sox lowlight: One pickoff error and one missed catch error

My Comment: The Boston Red Sox have been in first place for the first 26 days of the season and this is the first time in the team's history that they have done that. Looking forward to Boston extending that record well into the season. With today's win, the Red Sox have guaranteed themselves at least a split of the series, but another sweep is the goal.

HOUSTON: Starting Pitcher: Eril Bedard; Losing Pitcher: Erik Bedard
BOSTON: Starting Pitcher: Ryan Dempster; Winning Pitcher: Ryan Dempster (1)
BOSTON: Homeruns: David Ross (2,3), Will Middlebrooks (6), David Ortiz (2)

Red Sox: Wins 16, Losses 7, Percentage: .696

Next game: Saturday 27 April 2013, 4:10 p.m.PT/7:10 p.m.ET, Houston Astros, Fenway Park, Felix Doubront
