Pirates Drop 2-1 Decision to Red Sox
Pitching was the name of the game in a tight contest between the Boston Red Sox and the Pittsburgh Pirates. Boston won it, 2-1. Boston starter Ted Burton was in command. Burton, now 7-6, was the winner. In 7 innings, he gave up 3 hits, while striking out 5, walking 2, and allowing no runs. Terence McCray was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 20 of 25 save opportunities.

Patrick Vitzhum had a critical at-bat with no one out in the bottom of the sixth for Boston. He came through with a run-scoring single to put Boston in front, 2-0.

"Tough loss," said Pittsburgh manager Jose Mijares. "This one will stick in my craw."

With the victory, the Red Sox upped their record to 77-59.
