The Red Sox split their squads and came away with two victories today—one against the Kissimmee Astros and the other in Jupiter against the Redbirds. Josh Beckett hurled 3 2/3 impressive innings in Boston's 3-2 win over Houston.
Jacoby Ellsbury had three hits and an RBI in the Sox 8-7 cliffhanger over the Cardinals (whose fans weren't all that upset about the loss). Ryan Lavarnway homered and drove in three runs in the win over St. Louis.
