Sox Win a Thriller!

After Tuesday's stunning loss, the Red Sox rebound and win a thriller, led by Trot Nixon's seventh inning home run. Josh Beckett's first career Red Sox start was a success, as he K'd 5 through 7 innings. Mike Timlin has his first hold of the year, and Jonny Papelbon got his first save of the year with 2 K's. The Sox are now 2-1, and will next face the Baltimore Orioles, in which Matt Clement(0-0) will start against Daniel Cabrera(0-0).


Here is last night's box score.
