Lester Outduels Peavy 1-0

Big bats gave way to big pitching last night as the Red Sox squeeked past the slumping White Sox 1-0 for their 6th straight win, bringing their record to 10-10. Jon Lester pitched out of jams as needed over the first seven, middle relief did the same in the 8th & Alfredo Aceves pitched a 1-2-3 9th to close the game. Jake Peavy was a tough luck loser, giving up only 1 run on a Ryan Sweeney double & an RBI single to former Padre teammate Adrian Gonzalez. This is the 2nd series in a row that the Red Sox win. Beckett tries to keep the road trip perfect this afternoon against Gavin Floyd. For all the reporters who keep saying the Red Sox can't win, it's nice to see the Boston 9 keep proving them wrong.
