The Red Sox rebounded from their game one loss in the split doubleheader on Saturday with a 7-2 win over the Angels at Fenway Park.
Clay Buchholz (pictured) scattered six hits over 6.2 innings, allowing just two runs in improving his record to 9-0 on the season. He walked one and struck out four before leaving with an apparent injury after attempting to make a couple of very tough defensive plays.
Every hitter in the Red Sox lineup had a least one hit (team had 13 overall). David Ortiz paced the Sox with his 13th double of the season off Angels starter CJ Wilson; he also added his 12th home run of the season in the bottom of the sixth inning.
Shane Victorino was back in the lineup for Boston. He played center and batted leadoff with a single and a run scored in five at bats. He also made a terrific running play on a fly ball into the triangle in center.
