After getting embarrassed the night before, two of the Red Sox brightest stars led the team to a 7-5 win in the Bronx over the Yankees last night.
Ace Josh Beckett (2-1) went eight innings, giving up six hits, three runs, one walk and five strikeouts. Yankees starter Mike Mussina didn't fare quite as well. He lasted three innings and was charged with five runs on seven hits.
Manny Ramirez (3 for 5, 3 runs, 3 RBIs) continued to tear the cover off the ball as he hit two home runs off Mussina. A shot to center that just eluded Melky Cabrera and a bomb to left.
The Sox (10-7) cruised to a 7-0 advantage before giving up three in the fifth and Papelbon gave up two in the ninth.
Boston had 13 hits, Dustin Pedroia, Kevin Youkilis, J.D. Drew and Jason Varitek all had two. Jacoby Ellsbury stole two more bases, making him a perfect 14 for 14 in the majors.
A 3-1 road trip against the Indians and Yankees is a nice mark. Boston comes home to Fenway tonight as they face the Texas Rangers then the Angels.
