Red Sox Drop Angels, 3-2
In a low-scoring tilt between the Boston Red Sox and the California Angels, Alex Gonzalez was the difference-maker. The Boston right-hander spearheaded the 3-2 win. At 69-77, the Red Sox find themselves in third place in the American League East Division.

The Red Sox procured the win, in large part because of second baseman Tim Raines. In the bottom of the tenth, he produced the game-winning run-scoring single.

"We didn't go down without a fight," said California manager Rich Callaghan.
