Last week everyone wondered what happened to the offense and the once hot bat of Kevin Youkilis. This weekend both were found. The Red Sox beat the Rays to complete a 3 game sweep scoring 7 runs on 11 hits today. Youk went 3-4 with a home run and 4 RBI’s, Ellsbury had 2 stolen bases. The Sox were in control the entire way after Ellsbury scored on a sac fly in the first. Lester pitched well going 6 innings and Papelbon earned his 9th save of the season. The homestand comes to a close and the Sox head to Detroit for a 3 game series starting at 7 pm on Monday.
