GAME LOG
  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Texas Rangers (33-53) 1 0 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 3 5 1
Boston Red Sox (44-41) 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 2 X 4 8 0
Red Sox Nip Rangers, 4-3
Boston beat Texas on the strength of starter Roberto Muñíz's fine effort. The left-hander led his team to a win, 4-3. Boston reliever Mitchell Traver picked up the win, upping his record to 2-2. Jason Wiley was saddled with the loss. The win gives Boston a season record of 44-41.

Had Kenny Gentry not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 2nd, Gentry hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 4-3, in favor of the Red Sox.

Gentry called the win "a team effort."
