Location: Fenway Park
RESULT OF PRIOR GAME
Red Sox 6, Nationals 3 (W: Kyle Snyder, L: Tony Armas)
Sox Star of the Game: Manny Ramirez – 2-5, 2 R, 2 RBI, HR
Game Notes: A gift win yesterday, with Royals reject Kyle Snyder picking up the win, was more than welcome – especially given the Yanks’ loss to the Phillies. Tonight, hard-luck starter Tim Wakefield (who, by the way, is 17th in the AL with a 3.97 ERA) goes up against Livan Hernandez in search of the Sox’ 5th straight victory.
