Jody Reed helped his team muscle past the Boston Red Sox, 9-2. In the game, the Orlando second baseman went 3-4 with a home run and 2 doubles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3. Joe Johnson got the win, improving to 15-3. He worked 5.2 innings, giving up 2 runs on 6 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 3. The Devil Rays raised their record to 64-59.

Reed had a clutch at-bat in the top of the second for the Devil Rays. Coming up with a runner on 1st and Orlando trailing 1-0, he hit a 2-run home run.

"You can't get too high when things go well, or too low when things go bad. Right now, I'm just happy we got the win," Reed told the Orlando Today.
