Red Sox 9, Astros 4

A nice team win. Contributions up & down the lineup. Allen Webster righted himself after a tough couple of innings to go a full 6 before turning it over to the pen. The little man, Dustin Pedroia, has a 3 for 5 night with a couple of big RBI in a 7-run 6th inning when 12 Red Sox batters made it to the plate. Daniel Nava had a nice night on both sides of the ball, throwing out a runner at home & collecting a couple of hits. 4 wins in a row now. Beating up on bad teams is what good teams do. And the Boston Red Sox are playing like a much better team lately. Even JBJ & Will Middlebrooks contributed hits in last night's game. Christian Vazquez had a 2-hit night as well. Production from the bottom 3rd always helps. And don't forget Brock Holt, master of 7 positions & playing SS last night, producing in the leadoff spot again. Holt is very underrated for the season he is having. Again, a nice team win.
