Cardinals Fall Short, 6-5, at Boston
The Boston Red Sox did just enough to sneak past the St. Louis Cardinals, 6-5, at Fenway Park. Boston pitcher Porter Curran, in particular, had a standout performance. Curran got the win, improving to 1-0. He allowed 3 hits and walked 1 over 6.1 innings. Curran allowed 1 run. Mitchell Traver closed it out for his 3rd save.

The Red Sox got a big at-bat from left fielder Sawyer Cleveland. For the game, Cleveland was 1-4 with a home run, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. In the bottom of the fourth, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a 2-run home run. His 8th home run of the season gave Boston a 2-1 lead.

"It feels good to get this one," Curran told the Boston Herald.

The 4th-place Red Sox go to 17-21.
