Red Sox Rally For Late Win Over Cardinals
The Boston Red Sox topped the St. Louis Cardinals, 5-2, in Federal League action at Fenway Park. The player of the game was Boston second baseman Mike Blowers. Boston has now won 5 in a row.

Akira Eto contributed to the Boston win with a 3-run home run in the bottom of the eighth. For the game, the third baseman had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 2 runs scored, and 3 RBI.

"We put a lot of pressure on ourselves," Eto told a Boston Gazette reporter. "Sometimes we need just to relax."
