Richardson Stars in 11-5 Rays Win
The Tampa Bay Rays downed the Boston Red Sox, 11-5. The hitting star was left fielder Dirk Richardson. Richardson was 3 for 4 with a home run, a triple, a double, and a walk, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 2 for the Rays. The win went to Henry Vielma in relief. His record improves to 4-2. Terry Connors took the loss. Tampa Bay is 57-78 and Boston, with the loss, 71-65.

Andy Molina had a big 2-run double for the Rays in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Tampa Bay leading 1-0 and the bases loaded, he got a fastball from Steve Johnson, who is tied for 4th in the AL with a 3.06 ERA, and swatted a double to right-center. It was his 18th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Rays ahead, 3-0.

Richardson told the Tampa Bay Daily: "Win or lose, I don't want to see our team outhustled."
