That's all it took! Replace
Juan Nieves with
Carl Willis and—Voilà!—victory. The Red Sox got a solid—although sometimes shaky—performance by
Clay Buchholz in
a much-needed 6-3 win over the Blue Jays. The tall righty—sporting a ridiculous new haircut—hurled 6 1/3 innings giving up three earned runs. Most of Boston's offense came by way of the long-ball—a three-run shot by
Mike Napoli and a two-run blast by
Pablo Sandoval.
Dustin Pedroia knocked in the first run in the opening frame. The win moved
The Carmine Hose percentage points out of the cellar—and will make the long flight to Oakland a little more palatable.
