Red Sox Claim 6-4 Win
Good production from designated hitter Eloy Jimenez helped the Boston Red Sox topple the New York Mets, 6-4. Jimenez went 2 for 4 with a home run. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for the Red Sox. The first-place Red Sox, at 74-55, lead the American League East by 4 games.

Had Jimenez not come through in the bottom of the seventh, who knows how the game would've ended? But with two down, Jimenez hit a 2-run single. The Red Sox took the lead, 6-4, and never looked back.

"I was just going up there trying to see good pitches, that was about it," said Jimenez.
