04/24: Red Sox 6 (14-7) Athletics 5

Jon Lester is now 4-0 and Boston came back from a horrendous game last night to win the rubber game of the three game set with the Athletics.  Lester was a little wild and gave up some hits but the offense bailed him out.  Andrew Bailey struck out all three batters he faced to get the save.  Shane Victorino, David Ortiz, Mike Napoli, and Daniel Nava each drove in a run.  Stephen Drew drove in two with a triple.

PLAYER OF THE GAME:

ANDREW BAILEY (1 inning, 3 strikeouts, 0 hits, 0 walks, save)

Andrew Bailey and Mike Napoli Named Co-Players of the Week

Mike Napoli has been on fire lately.  Andrew Bailey had a pretty good week as the fill-in closer.  Joel Hanrahan may have some trouble getting his job back when he gets back from the disabled list.
