Sox Get Payback With Sweep of Rays

Last week everyone wondered what happened to the offense and the once hot bat of Kevin Youkilis. This weekend both were found. The Red Sox beat the Rays to complete a 3 game sweep scoring 7 runs on 11 hits today. Youk went 3-4 with a home run and 4 RBI's, Ellsbury had 2 stolen bases. The Sox were in control the entire way after Ellsbury scored on a sac fly in the first. Lester pitched well going 6 innings and Papelbon earned his 9th save of the season. The homestand comes to a close and the Sox head to Detroit for a 3 game series starting at 7 pm on Monday.
