Raúl Rosas got the win, improving to 8-10. He pitched 5.2 innings, giving up 5 hits and 3 runs, while striking out 1 and walking 2. Boston raised its record to 92-68 with the win.

With Boston leading 1-0 in the top of the fourth, Flores hit a fastball from Scott Blewett for a 3-run home run. It was his 11th home run of the season and put the Red Sox ahead, 4-0.

"We'll try to build on that win," Flores told the Boston Today.
