Pittsburgh Beaten, 4-2, by Boston
Getting an impressive start from Juan Cervantes, Boston beat Pittsburgh by the score of 4-2. Ed Goodwin, now 5-4, was credited with the win in 1 innings of relief. He allowed no runs on no hits, while striking out 2 and walking 2. Terence McCray got the save, his 21st in 26 chances.

Boston took a 3-2 lead on Dan Combs's 30th double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Combs hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Pittsburgh pitcher Adbert Alzolay visibly frustrated.

"Nice to see our side come away with the win," Combs said after the game.

The Boston winning streak has reached 3 games.
