The Red Sox finally found their 3rd win of the season behind veteran pitcher Tim Wakefield, who carried a no hitter over the Oakland Athletics into the 8th inning. It was the second day in a row that a pitcher has no hit another team for 7 or more innings. A.J. Burnett of the Yankees no hit the Tampa Bay Rays for 7 innings last night.

The Red Sox won today’s game by a score of 8-2, so it wasn’t just their pitching that found some rhythm, but also their offense. J.D. Drew had the big hit of the day, a 3-run homer.
