He grew up in Springsteen country as a Yankee fan. Tonight,
Anthony Ranaudo beat
The Bronx Embalmers for his first major league victory. The
4-3 Red Sox win featured the kid firing six solid innings, giving up just two earned runs on four hits. The offense was sparked by
Dustin Pedroia, who went 2 for 4 with a double and two RBIs.
David Ortiz and
David Ross also had RBIs.
Brock 'Babe' Holt tripled. At a key moment,
Mookie Betts (playing center field) robbed former Sox center fielder
Jacoby Ellsbury with a spectacular diving catch. Talk about your hardball karma.
