Fading Nationals Lose 6th Straight
Boston third baseman Kenny Gentry made his presence felt in the 6-4 Red Sox triumph over the Washington Nationals. Gentry was 2-4 with a home run, while scoring 2 and driving in 3. Alex Ramirez picked up the win in relief, improving his record to 2-0. Jack Little was tagged with the loss. Robert Paullus earned the save, his 17th.

Gentry had a game-changing home run in the top of the eighth. On a 1-0 fastball from Jack Little, he banged a 2-run home run to left-center, giving the Red Sox a 6-4 lead. It was the 6th home run of the year for Gentry.

"If we play like this, we can win a lot of games," Gentry told the Boston Herald.

This loss makes it 6 in a row for Washington.
