Red Sox Nipped, 5-3, by Columbus
Pawtucket got a terrific performance from pitcher Manny Esparza, but it wasn't enough to beat the Columbus Clippers. Columbus won the Huntington Park contest, 5-3. Esparza threw 7.0 innings of 4-hit ball for the losing team. Columbus now sports a record of 62-46.

Had Ernesto Zetino not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and the bases loaded, Zetino hit a 2-run single. That made the score 3-2, in favor of the Clippers.

After the game, Zetino applauded his team's resolve. "We kept our focus on the task before us," he said.
